Do you ever discover a new recipe that is such a hit with everyone in the family that people ask for it again and again…the same week? THIS is that recipe.
It all started with a ham. I had cooked a ham for dinner and had too many leftovers. The ham got me thinking about chicken cordon bleu. I brainstormed how I could make a quick chicken cordon bleu…and when I saw the sliced French bread at the store when I went to get the other ingredients, I knew what the perfect recipe would be.
Since that first time we made these paninis, we’ve made them twice again. So easy and so delicious. You MUST try them.
- Sliced French bread (sandwich size)
- Thinly sliced rotisserie chicken
- Thinly sliced ham
- Sliced Swiss cheese
- Dijon Cream Sauce
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 2 Tablespoons flour
- 1 cup low-fat milk
- 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon Worchestershire sauce
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon chopped parsley
- To make the sauce: Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and stir until combined; slowly add the milk and stir constantly until there are no longer lumps. Add bouillon and salt, and stir until thickened, about 5 minutes total.
- Remove pan from heat and stir in Dijon mustard, Worchestershire sauce, and Parmesan cheese. Stir until cheese is melted.
- To make paninis: Spread two pieces of bread with dijon cream sauce.
- Layer: ham - Swiss cheese - chicken and sandwich between the two slices of bread with dijon cream sauce.
- Spread butter on the outside of the sandwich and place on a heated panini press (or if you don’t have a panini press, just heat in a saute pan on the stove). Cook until bread is toasted and cheese is melted.
- Serve hot. Yum!

Thanks, hun! Having a challenge to work towards has been really good for me (if I don’t challenge myself, I end up being really boring!).
