We love cordon bleu, but I knew I had a lot to do today and ran across
this recipe at All Recipes and thought it would be the perfect substitute! It was SO easy and was very delicious!
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup milk
4 ounces sliced ham
4 ounces sliced Swiss cheese
1 (8 ounce) package herbed dry bread stuffing mix
1/4 cup butter, melted
Mix together the cream of chicken soup and milk in a small bowl. Pour enough of the soup into a slow cooker to cover the bottom. Layer chicken breasts over the sauce. Cover with slices of ham and then Swiss cheese. Pour the remaining soup over the layers, stirring a little to distribute between layers. Sprinkle the stuffing on top, and drizzle butter over stuffing. Cover, and cook on Low for 4 to 6 hours, or 2 to 3 hours on High.

Just an FYI...you're picture of this recipe is being "pinned" on pinterest.com and it's gaining momentum! That's actually how I found it! Be ready for more followers! Beautiful blog, by the way!!
ReplyDeleteMaking this tonight ! Looks great!
ReplyDeleteReally excited to try this but I have a question.. Instead of the stuffing mix is it okay to use breadcrumbs?! I grabbed them on accident!
ReplyDeleteRose
Rose,
ReplyDeleteI think bread crumbs would work just fine! You could add your own seasonings or spices if you want more flavor, but it would be good either way!
Made this tonight. My husband who hates chicken, loved it!
ReplyDeleteFound this recipe on Pinterest! I made it tonight and oh boy did my husband approve!! He's a very picky eater and he totally enjoyed every bit of it.
ReplyDeleteI also loved how simple it was to make this. Very few ingredients, but what a wonderful dish.
Thank you so much for sharing!!
looks yummy! should the chicken be thawed or can it be frozen?
ReplyDeleteI've only made it with frozen chicken breasts! Either way would work. :)
ReplyDeleteI really want to make this! I have a silly question though...it looks like there are red potatoes in it when you look at the picture but I don't see them in the recipe...am I missing something??
ReplyDeleteHey Danielle!
ReplyDeleteI made the potatoes as a side dish so they aren't in the recipe. :)
Thanks!
i found this off of pinterest.... and this is currently cooking in my crockpot right now, i am so excited to see how it turns out! thanks for a great post!
ReplyDeleteI made this today and enjoyed this for dinner tonight! Mine was pretty soupy although I didn't add the milk. Very yummy on a cold winter night!
ReplyDeleteI found this on pinterest....I instantly put it in my favorites and started a grocery list. I cannot wait to try this recipe out! Thanks for sharing! MMMM
ReplyDeleteI'm curious how big is your crockppot that you cooked this recipe in? I don't think I can fit all 6 frozen chicken breast (I love frozen chicken from Costco) in my tiny crockpot.
ReplyDelete@ericksenbuzz,
ReplyDeleteMy crockpot is the 7 quart size. If you can't fit all of the chicken breasts in, you can adjust the recipe by using a piece of ham and swiss cheese for each chicken breast you use.
Does the chicken need to be thawed or will the time be okay for frozen chicken? Thanks! So excited to make it this week!
ReplyDelete@Katlyn,
ReplyDeleteI've only tried it with frozen chicken and it turns out great! :)
So I'm making this now, but my stuffing seemed really cruncy after 4 hours (like not even cooked at all). I added about a 1/4 cup of water to the top of it to see if it softened the stuffing. Was my mistake using stove top???
ReplyDelete@mamato3,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about that! I've never seemed to have a problem when I've used Stove Top. Usually the butter drizzled on top and steam from the slow cooker make it soft.
Hey! I am anxious to try this but am wondering if I could freeze it? I am part of a freezer swap and am looking for easy meals to freeze.
ReplyDelete@Kendra,
ReplyDeleteI think it would work as a freezer meal except for the stuffing on top. I think it would get soggy if it were frozen then reheated. I would freeze everything else and then add the stuffing when you were reheating it.
I don't have a slow cooker yet, do you think it would be okay if I cooked it on the stove top in a frying pan or in the oven? If so, how long would I cook it for in either one? Thank you.
ReplyDelete@Bri,
ReplyDeleteHere is a recipe we use for Chicken Cordon Bleu in the oven:

Hope that helps!
this may seem like a stupid question (those are all I got) - but you mean just one layer of chicken on the bottom, right? then the ham & swiss...I have a very small crockpot and I'n trying to figure out how I would do this.
ReplyDelete@Jen,
ReplyDeleteYes, just one layer of chicken on the bottom then top with the ham and swiss.
This looks great and I'm planning on making it this week!
ReplyDeleteQuestion - maybe this is stupid but do you prepare the Stove Top stuffing first like the box instructs? Or put it on uncooked? My very pregnant brain is not figuring this out! :)Thanks!
@Esther Noelle,
ReplyDeleteJust dump the uncooked box of Stove Top on and drizzle the butter on top of that.
I made this for dinner tonight and it was wonderful. Great recipe!
ReplyDeleteThis was so easy and delicious! I could only fit 4 chix breasts in the bottom of my crockpot but it made for a nice Valentine's Day family dinner! I love your site and have tried several recipes they are so delicious!
ReplyDeleteHey I am late on finding this awesome recipe, but I've noticed on the site that most things you put on here are healthy? Do you happen to have a nutritional facts list for those of us on Weight Watchers?? Or if you could maybe point me in the right direction?
ReplyDeleteFound this on Pinterest and do believe I will be making it for Bunco on Friday!!! Also will be following your blog!! Keep the good stuff coming!!
ReplyDeleteCan this recipe be a freezer meal? If so do you make it all up and then freeze it?
ReplyDelete@Lori,
ReplyDeleteI think it would work as a freezer meal except for the stuffing on top. I think it would get soggy if it were frozen then reheated. I would freeze everything else and then add the stuffing when you were reheating it.
@cade,
ReplyDeleteWe don't have the Weight Watchers information for many of our recipes, but you can plug in the ingredients from any recipe into http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php and it will give you the nutritional information for that recipe. Hope this helps!
I tried this, and unfortunately, it was very dry. I didn't use frozen breasts, so that may have made a difference.
