All the flavors of traditional chicken cordon bleu but keto-friendly and much easier to assemble since there is no stuffing or rolling involved.

Ingredients

1 pound chicken cutlets, pounded to 1/4-inch thickness
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
⅔ cup almond flour
⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ cup avocado oil
¼ pound shaved deli ham
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Season chicken cutlets with salt and pepper; set aside.
Whisk eggs and Dijon mustard together in a shallow bowl. Combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder in a separate shallow bowl. Dip chicken cutlets into egg mixture, letting excess drip off. Dredge with almond flour mixture, then set on a plate.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken cutlets and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip over and cook until chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices are running clear, 3 to 4 minutes more.
Place chicken cutlets on a baking sheet. Top with ham slices and cover with Swiss cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese has melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Cook’s Note

You can buy chicken cutlets or make your own by butterflying chicken breasts and pounding them thin.

Feel free to use pre-shredded cheese, but I prefer to shred my own since it melts much better.
