Dripping with Butter and Sarcasm: Gluten Free Grilled Chicken Cordon Bleu & Asparagus

This is a truly easy and healthy recipe. So, after you are finished eating you can go get ice cream! I am including the asparagus recipe because it's easier to make them together, you'll see. The ingredients are simple:

3-4 chicken breast butterflied
2 pieces of ham per breasts
2 pieces of Swiss per breasts

1 bunch of asparagus
1 egg
1 cup milk
2 cups gluten free bread crumbs
Salt, pepper and parmesan to taste
Toothpicks

Start your grill and preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Butterfly your chicken breasts and lay the insides down on your grill. When they are cooked, turn them over and stuff them with ham and Swiss. Take your toothpicks and do your best at 'holding them together'.

So, now you have the inside of the chicken, where the ham and Swiss are, cooked. It is held together with the toothpicks and this is where I turn the grill off and close the lid. I leave the chicken on the grill while I prepare the asparagus....

Whisk your egg & milk together. Since this veggie is long, I put the mixture on a plate and not in a bowl. Roll in the milk, and then dredge in Gluten Free bread crumbs that you salt and pepper to taste. Place on a greased cookie sheet. KEEP your milk mixture and crumbs which are left over. Get your chicken off of the grill. Carefully take the top of the chicken breast and dip it in the milk mixture, then the remainder of the bread crumbs. Place on greased cooking sheet for baking. You will bake it, with the chicken, at the same temperature and time.

Sprinkle parmesan on everything to taste and place both the asparagus and the chicken breasts in the oven, for about 30 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and the cheese melted.

This is the end result and it's quite filling. The chicken will have a nice grilled taste to it, but you have to finish it in the oven when adding the bread crumbs. If you do not choose to bread it, you can complete the chicken on the grill using sprayed foil to catch the melting cheese.

NOTE: I make my own gluten free bread & use a few pieces of it in a mini food processor to make crumbs. They keep just fine in the freezer & you can use them directly from the freezer when needed. Purchased G-FREE crumbs are expensive & a waste if you make your own bread.
