When you think of chicken cordon bleu, what do you think of? A deep fried, maybe kind of outdated chicken dish? There’s a time and a place for that but freshening things up is always a good idea too. Of course, I’ve already done a baked version of a this classic dish to create a healthier chicken cordon bleu, but isn’t everything just a little more fun on a stick? These fun and easy chicken cordon bleu kabobs are not only a great dinner (kids think they are awesome!), but you could also put them on shorter sticks and serve them as a fantastic appetizer.
About these easy chicken cordon bleu kabobs
Cubes of tender chicken are threaded on a skewer along with cubes of ham. The meat is seasoned with a mixture of Dijon mustard, a bit of maple syrup, and paprika before grilling. The sauce is a basic cheese sauce, delicately flavored with Dijon mustard and Swiss cheese. It’s so yummy! I like to serve it with other dishes, too, like baked potatoes or roasted cauliflower. It’s also great as a dipping sauce for homemade soft pretzel bites.
