4 servings

40 minutes

A wonderful dish, which despite all its intricacy is not at all difficult to make. To prepare cordon bleu, you need to have patience, as you will have to carefully cut and beat the chicken fillet, and you also need to have a good taste of cheese, which is hidden in the depths of the cutlet along with the ham. We have tested this recipe many times, so we also want to advise you to take the choice of ham seriously - here its taste is noticeable.
