How To Make spiced up chicken cordon bleu / spicy garlic mayo

Step 1

Mix all ingredients for mayonnaise in a small bowl; refrigerate till ready to use.

Step 2

Season prepared chicken breasts with garlic powder and chicken seasoning. ( or whatever seasoning you want to use )
Step 3

In a skillet; (I use my cast iron) - over medium heat, add oil for frying chicken breasts. Get nice and hot, then add the breasts. Cook on one side for about 5 minutes. Flip and cook other side for another 5 - 10 minutes or until juices run clear.
Step 4

While chicken is cooking; turn on broiler. Butter both sides of Ciabatta. Place on baking sheet and broil until starts to brown.
Step 5

When chicken is finished. Place a breast on each bottom half of bread. Add to each a slice of ham and cheese. Place back under broiler until cheese starts browning and bubbling. About 5 minutes. Or - in skillet you fried the chicken in; add the ham slice and cheese to each breast. Sprinkle some water in edge of pan - cover and steam to melt cheese.
Step 6

Take from oven, slather top of bun with garlic mayonnaise. Can add lettuce, onion, etc. Your choice. Enjoy!
