1 Video | Photo: Grilled Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded thin
- Olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 pound triple creme cheese (recommended; Red Hawk) or brie, thinly sliced
- 2 lemons, halved
- 8 paper thin slices prosciutto
- 1/4 pound baby arugula
Directions
Heat the grill to high.
Brush the chicken on both sides with oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill until slightly charred on both sides and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Put a few slices of cheese on each breast, close the cover and let it melt slightly, about 40 seconds. Brush the cut side of lemons with oil and grill, cut side down until golden brown and slightly charred, about 45 seconds.
Put the chicken on large serving plates, top each breast with 2 slices of prosciutto and some arugula. Squeeze the grilled lemon on top and drizzle with olive oil.

It was a hit! Easy to make but expensive ingredients to buy! The cheese alone is over $20.00 & the prosciutoo was another $15.00 + chicken and toppings, a bit too pricey to make again. But we enjoyed every bite!
