I had several requests for the recipes for a couple of the dishes at the wedding of Pirate and GT...so...to save my fingers and let everyone enjoy them who want to..I am going to put the recipes here.
Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta (for 8 double or triple for more people)
2 Boxes of Dreamfields Rotini or Penne (this is a low carb pasta that tastes fantastic..cook 5 minutes longer than regular pasta (5 usable carbs per 1/2 cup))
1 lb Jarlesberg Swiss Cheese (shred the heck out of this, food processor is best)
Enough Light cream to cover the cheese in a pot ( I use about 3 pints mixed light and regular cream (not heavy))
1/2 cup of butter for the cheese pot.
1/2 cup of butter for the chicken breasts
3 chicken breasts, boneless, skin less
1 - 1 1/2 lb LEAN ham ( ham steak is fine)
Garlic Powder
Pepper (white)
Progresso Italian Panko Crumbs
Cornstarch
- Boil Pasta.. While pasta is boiling cook the chicken breasts in butter and garlic and then run them through a food processor along with the ham.
- Melt the rest of the butter in the bottom of the pot you will prep the sauce in.
- Add the cheese and cream and lower temp to low-medium. Stir CONSTANTLY to prevent the cheese from granulating.
- Drain and rinse the pasta and place in a pan large enough to hold it and let cool
- Add the ham and chicken and distribute through out using your hands.
- Stir the Sauce and add garlic and pepper to the mix to taste....
- Once the cheese has melted through out, take out half a cup and add enough cornstarch to form a smooth, thin paste then add to the sauce in the pot slowly stirring through out. Let thicken.
- Mix into the pasta and add the Panko crumbs over the top and place the pan in the oven at 325 for 30 minutes.
- Enjoy
