Whether it’s spaghetti and meatballs, a simple steak, or cordon bleu, there are certain classic meat recipes that are delicious any time of the year. But for this recipe, we wanted to try something new, something a little different from what most people know, which is why we’ve come up with a recipe for chicken cordon bleu shish kabobs (quite a mouthful, we know). Serve them up with some oven-baked potato wedges with rosemary, and you’ve got yourself a tasty meal!
Chicken Cordon Bleu Shish Kabobs
Equipment
- Oven
- Baking tray
- Bamboo skewers
Ingredients
- 3 chicken breasts
- 3 slices ham
- 6 slices cheese
- 2 cups bread crumbs
- 4-5 potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
- 1 sprig rosemary, chopped
- extra virgin olive oil
- salt & pepper to taste
- 3 bamboo skewers
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butterfly the 3 chicken breasts and carefully flatten them.
- Place one slice of ham on top of each chicken breast. Season everything with salt and pepper. Place 2 slices of cheese on top of the ham on each chicken breast.
- Roll up each chicken breast, place them next to one another, and stick 3 wooden skewers through them. Cut the chicken vertically between the skewers so you have 3 equally-sized shish kabobs. Generously brush the shish kabobs with olive oil and coat them in the bread crumbs.
- Place the skewers on a baking tray and spread potato wedges all around them. Sprinkle rosemary over the potatoes and drizzle olive oil over everything. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook for 35 minutes.
