"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Directions:
Skin and bone chicken breast halves. Place each half between two sheets of plastic wrap, skinned side down, and pound with metal mallet to about 1/8 inch thickness. Place ham slice on each chicken and on top of ham place finger of cheese. Sprinkle lightly with seasonings. Roll ham and jelly-roll style, then roll each chicken breast with ham and cheese inside. Tuck in ends and seal well. Tie rolls if necessary or fasten edges with toothpicks. Dip each roll in melted butter, then roll in cornflake crumbs, turning to thoroughly coat each roll. Place rolls in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Bake uncovered, in a 400ºF oven for about 40 minutes, or until chicken is golden brown. Serve with cordon bleu sauce. Makes 6-8 servings. Good with rice.

Sauce:
Blend ingredients and heat. Serve over chicken rolls. Makes about 2 cups or 8 servings of 1/4 cup each.

Personal Notes:
I use skinless, boneless chicken breast, it eliminates one step. I hate de-boning and skinning chicken.
