Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I keep this crispy when reheating?

To maintain the crunch, reheat the Chicken Cordon Bleu in the air fryer or oven at a lower temperature (300°F/150°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until warmed through.

Q: Can I make this keto or lower in carbs?

Yes, by swapping the breadcrumbs with almond flour and reducing the Swiss cheese, you'll significantly lower the carb count.

For a keto option, keep the portion size in check to stay within the daily carb limit.

Q: How can I boost the protein even more?

Add 1-2 tbsp (15-30g) Greek yogurt or cottage cheese to the filling for an extra 5-10g protein.

You can also serve the dish with a side of steamed vegetables or a small salad to increase the overall protein content.

Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika.
  3. In a pan, melt 1 tbsp (15g) butter over medium heat. Add the diced ham and cook until lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Stuff each chicken breast with the cooked ham mixture, followed by a sprinkle of shredded Swiss cheese.
  5. Dredge the stuffed chicken breasts in the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  6. Place the breaded chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and drizzle with the remaining 1 tbsp (15g) butter.

Chef Sofia Rossi’s Crisping & Macro Notes

For the crispiest results, make sure to pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels before dredging them in the breadcrumbs. Also, don't overstuff the chicken breasts to ensure even cooking and prevent the filling from spilling out.
