| Deep-Fried Chicken Cordon Bleu
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup of cooked ham, minced
1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, grated
1 egg
salt and black pepper, to taste
4 cups of peanut oil, for frying
One at a time, place breast halves between two sheets of waxed paper and pound flat. Combine minced ham and grated cheese with hands; dived into two equal portions. Form each into a long roll to fit in the middle of a flattened chicken breast. Roll chicken around ham & cheese and secure with a toothpick. Beat egg lightly with 1 teaspoon of water. Paint each chicken roll with egg mixture. Heat peanut oil in a fryer to 350ºF. Fry chicken rolls in hot oil until browned evenly and firm to the touch. Serves 2.
