A note about serious food allergies

Cordon bleu are two words together that sound so fancy, so ultra-culinary, that we know the temptation is to close to the tab and return to sports scores and cute cats. But don't be blue; instead, get bleu with this prosciutto-wrapped chicken with delicious melted cheese on top. It's a variation, but the flavors remain true: meaty, salty, rich cheese, pure taste bud delight. Forget the fancy words; yum is the only word that matters. Tip: Make potatoes easier to cut by making a large slice that leaves a flat surface. Place the flat surface on the cutting board and get to dicing!

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F
  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Peel and cut potatoes into 1/2" dice.

    Trim zucchini ends, halve lengthwise, and cut into 1/2" slices. Place zucchini on one half of prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil, meatloaf seasoning, and a pinch of pepper. Spread into a single layer on their half. Set aside.

    Pat chicken breasts dry.

    If using pork chops, pat dry and season both sides with a pinch of salt.

  2. 2

    Make the Mashed Potatoes

    Bring a medium pot with potatoes and garlic covered by water to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, 14-18 minutes.

    Reserve 3/4 cup potato cooking water. Drain potatoes in a colander and return to pot. Add butter, sour cream, 1/4 cup potato cooking water, and 1/4 tsp. salt. Mash until smooth. Cover and set aside.

    If potatoes are too dry, add potato cooking water, 2 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

    While potatoes boil, prepare chicken.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cover chicken breasts with plastic wrap and pound with a heavy object into an even 1/2" thickness. Season both sides with a pinch of pepper. If available, use a disposable gallon-size bag for pounding.

    Remove prosciutto from refrigerator. Wrap each chicken breast with two prosciutto slices, wrapping around the width like a belt. (Remaining prosciutto is extra.)

    If using pork chops, skip pounding and go directly to wrapping with prosciutto.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken and Zucchini

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add prosciutto-wrapped chicken to hot pan, seam-side down, and cook undisturbed until prosciutto is crisp, 5-7 minutes.

    Flip chicken and cook, 1 minute.

    Transfer chicken to empty half of baking sheet, seam-side down. Roast in hot oven until zucchini is tender and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 6-8 minutes.

    Top cooked chicken with cheese. Roast again until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes.

    If using pork chops, follow same instructions in pan and roast until pork chops reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 8-9 minutes. Follow same instructions with cheese.
