Chicken Cordon Bleu Fingers

I routinely try and create new recipes (sometimes to the Mr.'s dismay... oops). Tonight's creation was a success though: chicken fingers, cordon bleu style. Mmmm. One of the things I like most about my version is that it is 100% pre-cooked so there is no messy raw meat sitting around which keeps things so much more sanitary during the preparation.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lb of sliced cooked chicken (deli meat)
• 1/2 lb of thinly sliced high quality swiss cheese
• 1 boneless ham steak
• 1 egg
• 1/3 cup of milk
• 1 cup of flour (
• 1 tablespoon of Montreal chicken seasoning
• 1 1/2 cups of panko bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup of shredded asiago
• 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2. Mix the chicken seasoning into the flower in a shallow dish; blend milk and egg in another dish; mix garlic salt, asiago, and bread crumbs in another dish
3. Slice ham steak into 1/2 - 3/4 inch strips
4. Lay ham across one slice of swiss cheese and roll up
5. Layer two slices of chicken and lay the cheese/ham roll at one end
6. Roll the chicken layer around the ham/cheese section
7. Lightly dust the roll ups with the seasoned flour
8. Coat each with the egg mixture
9. Dip and coat the roll-ups in the breadcrumbs
10. Place on greased cookie sheet
11. Bake for 15 minutes (flip after 10 to cook evenly)

Enjoy while they're all warm and gooey! Mmm!

Makes 4 servings (2 each). Would also make great appetizers if you cut the finished product into quarters and skewered them with a toothpick!
