When you’re looking for a way to turn ho-hum chicken breasts into a “Wow!” dinner, these gluten free chicken cordon bleu bundles are just the thing!

I don’t know about you, but I’m always looking for new ways to serve skinless boneless chicken breasts. Chicken is the one type of meat that I buy every single time I go to the grocery store, and if it’s on sale I buy and freeze. There’s just something about rolling up ham and cheese into those humble chicken breasts, then breading and baking them. Add a simple mustard cream sauce, and your gluten free chicken cordon bleu will be the stuff of family legends.

I generally make my own Panko-style gluten free bread crumbs in bulk, then store them either in the refrigerator or the freezer until I’m ready to use them. But I also have been known to grind simple gluten free corn flakes and use those in place of bread crumbs. Or even Rice Chex (although I prefer to use a cereal that doesn’t have any sugar, and Rice Chex doesn’t qualify).

My family didn’t eat a lot of ham growing up, which means the only time I ever had chicken cordon bleu is at a restaurant. These chicken bundles are much lighter and fresher, while still being packed with flavor. Although it’s traditionally made with Swiss cheese, since it’s a bit of a harder cheese so it melts more slowly, I much prefer the flavor of provolone in this dish. Some of the provolone cheese may leak out of the bundles, but that melted cheese might just be my favorite part. Except for the sauce. And the super moist chicken. Okay it’s all my favorite. Make it your family’s, too!
