Doing dinner for Mom on Saturday instead of Sunday and since we have a 70% chance of rain we're going to cook indoors.

Haven't made chicken cordon bleu in a while and Mom loves it, so I'm going to go with this but I'm tired of the way I usually do it.

Does anyone have any suggestions that may give it a little more zip? I usually just pound out the chicken, stuff with swiss and ham, roll up and fry in a skillet after doing an egg wash/breadcrumbs.

I've looked online but nothing striking my fancy and I know the culinary wizards around here have much better stuff than the Food Network!

I have had it with prosciutto instead of ham. It was good but idk if that would be the zip you are looking for.

Good idea. I might just go with the old tried and true method. Just felt like experimenting with the dish a little bit.

Maybe use a creamier cheese, like Havarti? Or kick it up a little and use pepper jack?

I like this as well as the Prosciutto idea. I'll make a hollandaise as well.

Thanks everyone!
