We are seriously giddy over this recipe. Chicken cordon bleu is the ultimate comfort food. We have so many fond memories of eating this as kids, but it always came from a box. These days, we’re all about turning our favorite classic recipes into made-from-scratch, restaurant quality recipes that everyone can enjoy, and this one will not disappoint. While it takes more effort than pulling it frozen from a box and popping in the microwave, it is still super easy to make and we are confident that it will be well worth that effort.
What kind of ham should I use? This recipe simply calls for deli ham. We like to stick with a high quality deli ham found behind the counter at your local grocery store. Thickening with cornstarch vs. flour: Everyone has their personal favorite thickening agent. Some like to avoid the gluten in flour, or just don’t like the taste of flour that sometimes is left behind when you don’t cook it long enough. It really shouldn’t make a huge difference which you use, but we found that we prefer cornstarch to thicken this sauce. Reheating and Storage Instructions: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. For best flavor and to retain moisture, reheat in the oven preheated to 350 degrees until warmed through.
