WHAT SAUCE GOES ON CHICKEN CORDON BLEU RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a bowl, combine the ground chicken with the garlic, egg, bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, dried basil, oregano, pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
• Mix with clean hands until just combined - do not overmix.
• Shape the mixture into meatballs that are 1-inch in size - or slightly less, about 24.
• Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
• Add the meatballs in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches), browning on all sides, cooking about 5 to 6 minutes in total. You don’t need to cook them fully because we will put them in the oven - just brown them.
• Transfer the meatballs to a plate.
• In the same skillet over medium heat, add the shallots and garlic with a pinch of salt and stir.
• Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the white wine, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
• Let it simmer for 2 minutes. Add in the sliced lemons and chicken stock.
• Add the meatballs back into the pan.
• Bake for 15 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through to 165 degrees F.
• Serve on sandwiches or with pasta, rice or your favorite vegetable.

Steps:

• Add olive oil to the Instant Pot. Using the display panel select the SAUTÉ function. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• When oil gets hot, brown the chicken on both sides, 3-4 minutes per side. Meat will not be cooked through. Do not crowd the pot--you may have to work in batches. Transfer browned meat to a shallow dish and cover loosely with foil.
• Add butter to the Instant Pot. When butter is melted, add garlic and cook for 1 minute or until it just begins to brown.
• Mix in cream, broth, salt and nutmeg and deglaze by using a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Add (broken in half) noodles, ensuring all noodles are submerged. Nestle chicken breasts in sauce in an even layer, turning once to coat.
• Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
• Using the display panel select the MANUAL function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 10 minutes.
• When the time is up, let the pressure naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick-release the remaining pressure.
• Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL. Carefully remove the chicken to a cutting board and slice into bite-sized pieces.
• Return chicken to the pot, stir in parmesan cheese and serve immediately, garnished with basil.
