Sticking to a keto diet is no problem when you’ve got plenty of tempting recipes to choose from! This flavor-packed entrée takes its cues from the traditional French dish, Cordon Bleu, which translates to “blue ribbon” in English. Bell & Evans Boneless, Skinless Organic Chicken Breasts are gently pounded to flatten them, and then stuffed with Swiss cheese and ham, then battered and fried to gooey, cheesy perfection.

Ingredients

Chicken

Salad

  • 1 (4-oz) bag Spring mix
  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 Red onion, sliced thin
  • 1 medium Carrot, cut into 1/8-inch matchsticks
  • Balsamic vinaigrette, for serving

Preparation

  1. For chicken: Lay chicken breasts on work surface between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Pound with a meat tenderizer or rolling pin until 1/2-inch thick. Repeat with remaining breasts.
  2. Place 2 slices of Swiss cheese and 2 slices of ham on each breast. Roll breast up widthwise and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm enough to work with, about 30 minutes.
  3. Add 1 cup almond flour and eggs to 2 separate bowls. Combine remaining almond flour and Parmesan in a shallow bowl. Dredge breasts in almond flour, eggs then Parmesan mixture, shaking off excess.
  4. Heat 1-inch of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 325°F. Working in batches, fry breasts, flipping occasionally, until golden-brown or until internal temperature reaches 165°F, about 8-10 minutes.
  5. For salad: Meanwhile toss spring mix, tomatoes, red onion, carrot and balsamic vinaigrette together until coated. Slice chicken and serve with salad.
