Chicken Cordon Bleu Sandwich

Step 1

Heat the oil and garlic in a large skillet set over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3

Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes per side or until fully cooked through. Cook time will depend on how thinly you pound the chicken.

Step 4

When chicken is cooked through, remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Butter one side of each slice of bread (about ½ tablespoon per slice)

Step 6

Lay two slices of bread into the skillet, butter side down. Top each with 1 slice of cheese, 2 slices of ham, and another slice of cheese. Top with 1 chicken breast per slice of bread. Top the chicken with another slice of cheese, 2 more slices of ham, and the last slice of cheese. Place the remaining pieces of bread, butter side up, onto each to complete the sandwich.

Step 7

Cover and cook for 2 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt.

Step 8

Flip each sandwich when the bottom side is toasted to your liking, and toast the other slice bread. Serve hot.
