this looks amazing! I'm going to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteDo you think this would work as a freezer meal? I like to double and triple stuff, so that I can put a couple in the freezer (not that this one would be too hard to pull together fresh).
ReplyDeleteI have never tried freezing it but I think it would work fine! Let us know how it goes if you try it!
DeleteThis recipe looks amazing!!! I will give it a try:)

ReplyDeleteSounds so quick,easy and good. I will definitely try this.
ReplyDeletewhat type of ham do you use in this recipe? i cannot wait to try this! YUM.
ReplyDeleteHi!
DeleteI just use some that they carry by the lunch meats that is already chopped. Sorry I'm not more help!
My boyfiend saw this and freaked, lol. Making this tonite!

ReplyDeleteI made this tonight and although it was very tasty...it was extremely salty for my family. If I make it again, I will use low salt ham and cheese. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, did you cover yours while it cooked? The recipe doesn't indicate so but I don't want it to dry out if I don't cover it.
DeleteThanks,
Toni
I made this tonight and it was fabulous. For clarity, because it wasn't specifically noted, don't cook the broccoli before you add it. I didn't and it was perfectly cooked. Also, I seasoned my chicken (I used boneless thighs) while I cooked it and it was super yummy. My bocce team loved it :-)
ReplyDeleteI will make this again!!
Oh, I covered it with foil (with venting slits) for half the cooking but you could probably not cover it and the stuffing would get a little crispy.
DeleteMaking this tonight, yummy!
ReplyDeleteHi, this may sound silly, but how long do you boil the chicken for? Do you just boil in in straight water? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi!
DeleteIt just depends on the thickness of your chicken breasts. I just boil them in straight water for about 15 minutes or until they are no longer pink. Thanks!
It looks yummy!! But can i put something instead of ham because i don't eat pork
ReplyDeleteYou could probably try it with Hillshire farms smoked or honey roasted turkey. its double poultry but the texture would be the same. also the flavor would be close since they cook their ham in the same fashion.
Deletebuy some turkey ham! :0)
Deleteso, my husband and i have never been big chicken cordon bleu people, but your recipe looked so good we had to try it! it turned out amazing. i baked my chicken in a small dish and drained then completed the rest. next time though, out of personal preference, i think i'll be using less mustard. overall totally amazing! :D
ReplyDeleteI made this last night for the family and it was a big hit, it was so quick and easy! I didn't cover it while baking so the broccoli still had a nice crunch and the stuffing was nice and crispy, just the way we like it. This will def be on the dinner menu in the future. Thank you !
ReplyDeleteOne thing that I like to do, is cook my chicken in my crock pot while I'm at work so that it is ready when I get home. Saves TONS of time!
ReplyDeleteMaking this tonight!! :) im pregnant and have been craving chicken cordon bleu! :D
ReplyDeleteMaking this tonight! So far it smells amazing! Can not wait to try it! Thank you for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy! Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteDo you mix the stuff with water before putting it on top? Or do you just put the stuffing mix on dry?
ReplyDeleteIt says in the directions to prepare the stuffing as directed on the package
DeleteIt says in the directions to prepare the stuffing as directed on the package
DeleteShould i cook the broccoli before putting it in the casserole?
ReplyDeleteHi Chelsea,
DeleteYou don't need to cook the broccoli before putting it in. Hope you like it!
Anyone ever tried this in the crockpot?
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteDo you cook or steam brocoli first?
ReplyDeleteHi Laura!
DeleteI don't cook or steam it before! Hope you like it!
Delicious... the entire family loved it.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of ham do you use? Do you use deli ham?
ReplyDeleteMade this for dinner tonight and it was great!! I did find it very salty. I think it was mostly the ham. And I used a rotisserie chicken, which worked really well! Just need to find a way to control the salt and it'll be perfect!
ReplyDeleteHI! This is a great recipe. I have made it several times now. My husband isn't a big broccoli fan. Is there another veggie you would recommend we could substitute with?Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou could really add any favorite vegetable. Asparagus would be so yummy! (If he is a asparagus fan!)
ReplyDeleteThank you for this recipe, it turned out great, however my family doesnt care for the mustard so I replaced the mustard with 2 tablespoons of sour cream and it was so good. This recipe is filed away in our Yum-O file!
ReplyDeleteI want to try and make this but I'm kinda new to cooking and not sure how to buy or cook fresh broccoli. Could you use a bag of frozen broccoli florets instead?
ReplyDeleteFrozen broccoli florets should work fine. Or you can just buy a couple bunches of fresh broccoli in the produce section of the grocery store. Just rinse it off well, trim off the thick stem and add the top which is the florets. Good luck and way to go on starting cooking! These are user friendly recipes! :) -The Six Sisters
ReplyDeleteWhat would be a good side dish for this? Making this tonight but have no clue what would go with it
ReplyDeleteWe have served it with a side of wild rice, a vegetable and any type of salad...fruit or green salad. -The Six Sisters
DeleteI made this for dinner tonight. I thought I had a can of soup, but turns out I didn't so I substituted sour cream. I used shredded swiss and mixed it into the chicken/ham then threw some on top before adding the stuffing. I used a mix of broc & cauliflower because that's what I had in the freezer. Not only did it smell amazing, but it was delicious as well. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOOOHHHH...I added some mushrooms too! : )
DeleteI am going to try it with Greek yogurt as I don't eat condensed cream soups and I'm also going to chop up asparagus instead of using broccoli!
DeleteAbsolutely loved this!!! It is in the mix for a regular meal at my house!
ReplyDeleteTrying this tonight. Looks and sounds sooo good! The only suggestion I would like to add is if you boil the chicken add garlic, a carrott, stalk of celery and an onion and you have some great chicken stock.
ReplyDeleteNice idea!

ReplyDeleteMade this last night. The entire family loved it! My youngest insisted I let you know how much we all enjoyed the dish! She said "those sisters are awesome!" Thank you for posting this wonderful recipe.
ReplyDeleteI work from 7 am to 7 pm and am looking for things the man could throw in the oven when he's ready for dinner. Is this something I could throw together the night before, cover and store in the fridge? Thanks for the great recipes ladies!
ReplyDeleteYES! It would be perfect for that! This is really one of our family favorites! Thanks for stopping by our blog! Have a great week.

Made this tonight with a can of green beans instead of broccoli. My roommate and I loved it, and I really liked that the prep wasn't time-sensitive, so I could prepare the meal in between keeping my 4-month-old occupied. Definitely adding this to my recipe book!
ReplyDeleteI'm making this tonight. I just salt and peppered some chicken breasts and cooked them on low in the crock pot today. Then just shredded the chicken and threw the rest of the recipe together. I'm excited to see if the broccoli cooks nice since I haven't had much luck with fresh broccoli in the past. Chicken Cordon Blue is a favorite of mine so if this compares at all I will be so happy.
ReplyDeleteThis looks absolutely amazing and I can't wait to make this for my family ~ thanks so much for sharing this and all of your other yummy recipes. I hope you will check out our blog too!
ReplyDeleteThis turned out really yummy! I can hardly get much of a response out of my husband when it comes to me trying out new recipes. He'll say, "It's not bad." He might as well just say, "It's not good."
ReplyDeleteBut on this one, the hubs really enjoyed it and said it was "pretty good."
So that's saying a lot!
Didnt see it, but how many does this feed???

DeleteJust click on the "magic" button under the picture. Then click on "nutrition". It will give you all the information you need on this recipe. It's our new sister blog site - MyRecipeMagic.com.
DeleteThe recipe specifies 3 to 4 chicken breasts - should I assume this means whole chicken breasts, or should chicken breast halves be used? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWe used whole chicken breasts, but you could use breast halves. Just throw in a few extra. It's great for leftovers!
