Cordon bleu with air fryer

Method5 steps · about 26 min

1. 1

   Step 1: Slice the Gruyere about 1 cm (0.4 inch) thick. Lay out four of the eight chicken slices (500 g) and reserve the remaining four as tops. Divide the cooked ham (80 g) and cheese among the four bottom slices, keeping the filling away from the edges.

   Uses 500 g chicken breast · 80 g cooked ham · 100 g Gruyere cheese

   Step 2: Cover each filled bottom with a reserved chicken slice. Press the edges together so the filling stays enclosed, then coat each assembled cordon bleu in flour.
