Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 pieces Swiss cheese slices
- 2 pieces Deli-style ham slices
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 pieces Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cups Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 piece Tomato, sliced
- 2 pieces Hamburger buns
- 1 tablespoon Butter
Instructions
Begin by prepping the chicken. Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch using a meat mallet.
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Set up a breading station. In one shallow bowl, place the flour. In a second bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. In a third bowl, add the breadcrumbs.
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip them into the egg mixture, ensuring they are fully coated, and finally press them into the breadcrumbs to coat evenly.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the breaded chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together to create the spread.
Lightly butter the inside of the hamburger buns. Toast them in a separate skillet or on a grill until just golden brown.
Assemble the sandwiches. Spread the Dijon mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato on top.
Add the cooked chicken breast to the sandwich. Lay a slice of ham on top of the chicken, followed by a slice of Swiss cheese.
Place the sandwiches back in the skillet or under a broiler just long enough to melt the cheese, if desired.
Top with the upper half of the bun and serve immediately. Enjoy your Cordon Bleu Chicken Sandwich!
