A Mini Recipe to Get You Started
 

1.     French Cordon Bleu
 

Ingredients:

·       2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 300g total)

·       50 g Swiss cheese, thinly sliced

·       50 g ham, thinly sliced

·       50 g all-purpose flour

·       1 egg, beaten

·       50 g breadcrumbs

·       Salt and pepper, to taste

·       Olive oil spray

Instructions:

·       Preheat the Beko ExpertFry: Set it to 200°C.
 

·       Prepare the Chicken: Place one chicken breast and use a meat mallet to gently pound the chicken to an even thickness, about 1 mm thick. Season the flattened chicken breast with salt and pepper. Layer the Swiss cheese and ham slices on top of the chicken breast. Carefully roll the chicken breast up tightly, enclosing the cheese and ham inside. Secure with toothpicks if necessary to hold the roll together. Repeat the process with the remaining chicken breast.
 

·       Bread the Chicken: Place the flour, beaten egg, and breadcrumbs in three separate shallow bowls. Dredge each chicken roll in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat it evenly with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
 

·       Cook the Chicken: Lightly spray the chicken rolls with olive oil spray. Place the chicken rolls in the pot in a single layer. Cook the chicken rolls at 200°C for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through, turning halfway through cooking.
 

·       Serve: Once cooked, remove the chicken rolls from it and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve the Cordon Bleu hot, with your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.
 

·       Enjoy: Relish the luxurious, crispy goodness of this French Cordon Bleu.
