Recipe: Chicken Cordon Bleu (low fat)

Chicken Cordon Bleu
Servings: 4

4 ounces Swiss cheese, lowfat -- sliced
4 ounces ham slices, extra lean
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 oz each), pound thin
3 tablespoons unbleached flour
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon light margarine
1/2 cup nonfat chicken broth
1 packet low sodium chicken broth, packet
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup evaporated milk

To cook the chicken: Place one-fourth of the cheese and ham on top of each chicken breast. Roll up breasts to enclose filling; secure with toothpicks. Combine flour and paprika. Coat chicken with flour mixture.

Coat a nonstick skillet with nonstick spray. Add margarine and heat until melted. Add chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 4 minutes. Stir in wine and broth mix. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken from pan. Keep it warm.

To make the sauce: Stir cornstarch into milk. Gradually stir milk mixture into pan. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Spoon sauce over chicken.
