"Cuisine is both an art and a science: it is an art when it strives to bring about the realization of the true and the beautiful, called le bon (the good) in the order of culinary ideas. As a science, it respects chemistry, physics and natural history. Its axioms are called aphorisms, its theorems recipes, and its philosophy gastronomy."

Oven Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

4 Chicken breast halves, boneless skinless
2 tsp Dijon mustard
4 tsp Fresh chives, chopped
4 Slices cooked lean ham, about 3/4 oz each very thin
4 Slices low-fat Swiss cheese 3/4 oz each very thin
1 Egg white
1 tbsp Water
1/3 cup Cornflake crumbs
1/4 tsp Paprika

Recipe Instructions:

Heat oven to 375F. Spray 8 inch square (1 1/2 quart) baking dish with
nonstick spray. Place 1 chicken breast between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or
waxed paper. Working from center, gently pound chicken with rolling pin or
flat side of meat mallet until about 1/4 inch thick. Repeat with remaining
chicken pieces, making four cutlets. Spread each cutlet with 1/2 teaspoon
mustard; sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon chives. Cut ham and cheese slices to
fit chicken cutlets. Roll up, tucking ends inside. In a shallow bowl,
combine egg white and water; beat slightly. Place cornflake crumbs in
shallow dish. Coat chicken rolls with egg white mixture; roll in cornflake
crumbs. Place in spray-coated dish. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 375F for
25-30 minutes or until chicken is fork tender and juices are clear.
