We can't get enough of these!

When you're juggling work, family, and a love for cooking, finding recipes that are quick, delicious, and somewhat impressive can be a lifesaver. Enter Chicken Cordon Bleu Stromboli. This twist on the classic French dish is perfect when you want to get a little fancy without spending hours in the kitchen. Using refrigerated pizza crust, this stromboli is a breeze to put together, making it a fantastic option for a weeknight dinner or a casual get-together with friends.

This Chicken Cordon Bleu Stromboli pairs wonderfully with a light side salad, perhaps something simple like a Caesar or a mixed greens salad with a vinaigrette. For a heartier meal, consider serving it with roasted vegetables or a bowl of creamy tomato soup. And don't forget a glass of your favorite white wine to complement the rich flavors of the chicken, ham, and cheese!

Servings: 4

1 refrigerated pizza crust
1 1/2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
1/2 cup ham, thinly sliced
1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1 egg, beaten
1 tbsp butter, melted
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried parsley
Salt and pepper, to taste

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Roll out the refrigerated pizza crust onto the prepared baking sheet.

3. Spread the Dijon mustard evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

4. Layer the shredded chicken, thinly sliced ham, and shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the mustard.

5. Carefully roll up the pizza crust, starting from one of the longer sides, and pinch the edges to seal the stromboli.

6. Brush the beaten egg over the top of the stromboli.

7. In a small bowl, mix together the Panko breadcrumbs, melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the stromboli.

8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the stromboli is golden brown and cooked through.

9. Let the stromboli cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

For a different flavor profile, try using mozzarella cheese instead of Swiss and add a few slices of avocado for a creamy touch. If you prefer a spicier version, sprinkle some red pepper flakes over the mustard before layering the fillings. To save even more time, use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken.
