Here’s a tasty Chicken Cordon Bleu Stromboli recipe—crispy dough stuffed with chicken, ham, and Swiss cheese, perfect for dinner or a hearty snack.
🥖 Chicken Cordon Bleu Stromboli
Ingredients (serves 4–6)
- 1 lb (450 g) pizza dough or store-bought bread dough
- 2 cooked chicken breasts, thinly sliced
- 4–6 slices of ham
- 4–6 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1–2 tsp Dijon mustard (optional)
- 1 tsp garlic powder or Italian seasoning (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat Oven
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Dough
- Roll out the dough into a large rectangle (about 12×10 inches).
- If desired, spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard over the dough.
3. Layer the Filling
- Lay slices of chicken down the center of the dough.
- Top with ham and Swiss cheese.
- Sprinkle with garlic powder or Italian seasoning if desired.
4. Roll the Stromboli
- Fold the long sides of the dough over the filling and seal the edges.
- Tuck the ends underneath.
- Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Add Egg Wash
- Beat 1 egg and brush over the top of the stromboli for a golden finish.
- Optional: make a few small slits on top to release steam.
6. Bake
- Bake 25–30 minutes, until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
7. Serve
- Let cool for 5 minutes, then slice and serve warm.
- Optional dipping sauces: honey mustard, ranch, or marinara.
💡 Tips
- Use thinly sliced chicken and ham to make rolling easier.
- Swiss cheese can be substituted with Gruyère or mozzarella.
- For extra flavor, brush the top with garlic butter after baking.
If you want, I can also give a shortcut version using pre-cooked chicken nuggets and store-bought crescent dough that’s ready in 20 minutes.
