How To Make chicken cordon bleu

Step 1

I like to butter fly the chicken but you can pound it out.

Step 2

Place the ham and cheese and thyme on the chicken.
Step 3

Roll the chicken as tight as you can.
Step 4

Wrap in plastic wrap and put in the freezer for about two hours. This will make it easier to bread.
Step 5

Now it's time to bread the chicken. Flour, egg, bread crumbs.
Step 6

Then deep fry for two minutes.
Step 7

Now bake in a 350 oven for about 35 minutes or until the internal temperature is over 165.
Step 8

And enjoy.
