Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Keto Chicken Cordon Bleu Sandwich.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, season your chicken cutlets generously with salt and pepper, then set them aside to absorb the flavors.
Step 3
In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs and Dijon mustard until well combined.
Step 4
In another shallow bowl, blend almond flour, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder for a delightful crunch.
Step 5
Take each chicken cutlet, dip it into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off, and then coat it thoroughly in the almond flour mixture.
Step 6
Arrange the coated cutlets on a plate, ready for cooking.
Step 7
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then gently place the chicken cutlets in the pan.
Step 8
Sear them for about 3 to 4 minutes until they achieve a beautiful golden brown color.
Step 9
Flip the cutlets and continue cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes, ensuring the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
Step 10
Once perfectly cooked, transfer the cutlets to a baking sheet.
Step 11
Layer each cutlet with shaved ham, followed by a generous sprinkle of shredded Swiss cheese.
Step 12
Slide the baking sheet into your preheated oven and bake for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese is gloriously melted and bubbly.
Step 13
Serve these delicious creations immediately for a meal that’s sure to impress.
