Easy Baked Chicken Cordon Bleu (Nuwave/Flavorwave Ovens)

Submitted by Starfire aka Wendy

"This is a fast and easy way to make dinner in your Nuwave/Flavorwave Oven. Made it tonight for my friends and have raves. Made up of "pre made" Garlic Mash potatoes and you have a great dinner in under 25 min (cooking time). 6-10 min to bread & roll them up. Note; You can defrost the chicken for 5 min on 1/2 power or 5 on Nuwave oven. I used defrosted chicken. Note: if your chicken is frozen you and defrost in your Nuwave oven/fFlavorwave oven. I have used 5-8 mins to defrost. Also, a quick way is to put your chicken breast into a full sized freezer bag prior to pouding it thinn. I hope this helps. Note: I use italian style bread crumbs, I also add some granulated garlic, salt & pepper, and some assiago cheese if I have some on hand. Enjoy!"

I have not used my Flavorwave oven in a loooonnngg time. I wanted to find something that was easy to make and tasted good. This recipe was a huge hit. My roommate does not care for chicken but loved this recipe.

This was a great idea - I'd never thought of doing chicken cordon blue in my Nu-Wave oven. I had to make a change because I didn't have any string cheese so I used a slice of Borden Swiss Cheese Singles instead and it worked just fine. I thought it was absolutely delicious! Better than the frozen Chicken Cordon Blue you buy in the store for such an outrageous price. My husband, who really doesn't even like chicken that much, asked me to make it again next week. Thank you very much for this recipe. I'll certainly be trying your others!

This was super easy and I can say that because it is the first "real" meal I have ever made. I received so many compliments and cannot stress enough how simple it was to prepare. I fed five and they all said it was the best Chicken Cordon Bleu (and they were right!)
