cordon bleu a la Riz

18 Mar

Please beware, I am no expert cook. I try to read or watch Food Network, but since most of the ingredients were unavailable to me (mahal kasi), I make do with my own simpler version of the recipe. Like this one I made last weekend. This is another version of that famed chicken cordon bleu.

Chicken breast, de-boned. This is very easy, most moms can do this by guiding the knife through the chicken bones starting from the side nearest to you…
After de-boning, I marinated the chicken with Alaska evaporated milk, salt and pepper…
Instead of the usual cold cuts and cheese fillings, I had filled out mine with veggies…for a change ^_^
Roll the chicken onto flour, egg, finishing it up with bread crumbs. Insert toothpicks to loose parts to secure the chicken breasts. Then, deep fry…
Viola! Served with garlicky and creamy gravy …kids loved to lick em!
My plate. Rolled chicken over pasta. Yummy!
Kids’ plate.

TIPS:

-The gravy can be stocked in the fridge and be used for pasta, bread, fried meats, or over sizzling plate I posted here.

-The fried chicken can also be stored in the freezer (I do batch cooking sometimes). Just reheat it in the microwave when needed. Saves time (this recipe is time consuming ^_^)

-Try not to discard the milk marinade, it can be used for making gravies/sauces. RECIPE HERE

-AND, and,the chicken bones,too. I boiled the bones, so I can use and store the broth for other purposes.

-ALSO, the chicken skin…well, it can be marinated, coated with flour and breading and deep fried, a la KFC’s Hot Shots…unless, you don’t want to keep the fats. Who’s dieting here? ^_^
