Ingredients

cooking spray
1/2 tbsp olive oil
1 1/4 lbs unpeeled eggplant (cut into 1-inch pieces)
kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 garlic cloves (crushed)
2 tbsp chopped basil (plus leaves for garnish)
1 1/2 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 large egg (beaten)
2 ounces Pecorino Romano cheese (freshly grated, plus more for serving)
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 25.25 ounce jar DeLallo Pomodoro sauce
part skim ricotta cheese (for serving (optional))

Steps:

Heat the oven to 375°F. Spray a large rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
Place 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. When hot add the eggplant and 1/4 cup water. Season with salt and pepper to taste and cook, stirring occasionally until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times.
Transfer to a bowl and add bread crumbs, beaten egg, Romano cheese, parsley, garlic and chopped basil into the eggplant. Season with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/8 teaspoon of pepper.
Form the eggplant mixture into 24 balls about 1 1/8 oz each, rolling tightly and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake until firm and browned, about 20 to 25 minutes.
Heat the sauce in a large deep skillet to warm the sauce. Add the meatballs to the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes. Garnish the meatballs with basil leaves and serve with ricotta cheese if desired.

EASY SKILLET CHICKEN CORDON BLEU – NO ROLLING! - SKINNYTASTE

EASY Skillet Chicken Cordon Bleu – No Rolling! - Skinnytaste image

I love making Chicken Cordon Bleu which I usually bread, roll and bake. But I wanted something quick with the same ingredients and came up with this – lazy chicken cordon bleu made all in one skillet. This is great with roasted veggies or you can serve this with rice pilaf.

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

4 thin boneless (skinless cutlets, 4 oz each)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup all purpose flour*
1/2 teaspoon butter
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
2/3 cup reduced sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
4 thin slices low sodium deli ham (I use Boar’s Head (3 oz total))
4 slices light Swiss Cheese such as Alpine Lace (3 oz total)
chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
* All purpose gluten-free flour works well here.

Steps:

Season chicken with salt and pepper, to taste.
Place the flour in a shallow dish. Lightly dredge the chicken with flour on both sides, shaking off the excess reserving the flour.
In a small bowl combine the chicken broth, lemon juice, Dijon mustard and 1 teaspoon of the reserved flour, whisk until smooth.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Melt the butter and add 1 teaspoon of the olive oil and half of the chicken.
Cook 2 minutes on each side, until slightly golden, then transfer to a dish.
Add remaining 1/2 teaspoon olive oil and remaining chicken and cook 2 minutes on each side.
Set aside on a dish with the other pieces of chicken.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the chicken broth mixture. Whisk scraping up any bits stuck to the pan then simmer 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
Return the chicken to the skillet, top each piece with a slice of ham and a slice of swiss, cover the skillet and simmer medium-low for 3 to 4 minutes until the cheese melts.
To serve use a spatula and transfer the chicken to each dish, spoon the remaining sauce over each piece.
