Chicken Cordon Bleu

If your in search of a dish with an explosion of flavor, Chicken Cordon Bleu is that dish.  Eating only fish, chicken and turkey can sometime get a bit boring which is why I tend to enjoy food that gives you multiple flavors.  The Italian bread crumbs mixed with the parmesan croutons took this to a whole other level.  Not only is this a beautiful dish but it’s also filled with insane flavor and looks as if you were in the kitchen for hours.

Ingredients

2 very large chicken breast
4 slices of turkey bacon cooked for 2 minutes
4 slices of baby swiss
