Our cordon bleu chicken recipe is rolled up in simple crescent rolls which makes the dish easy and fast. The entire recipe can be made in about 35 minutes which makes it entirely different from other cordon bleu recipes. The chicken is also thinly sliced which makes it cook much faster. Unlike many cordon bleu recipes, herb and garlic cream cheese is added which makes all the difference in the world.
I use the Philadelphia herb and garlic cream cheese because it is my favourite, but you can use the cream cheese of your choice. You might be tempted to leave it out, but I would not do that. It adds a texture and flavour to the cordon bleu recipe that is out of this world. It is just that additional touch that sets it aside.
