Cheese-Stuffed Chicken Cutlets with Mustard Sauce

Rate & Review

(30 people have added this recipe to their favorites.)

For her lovely riff on classic chicken cordon bleu, Marcia Kiesel replaces the heavy ham-and-Swiss-cheese filling with creamy havarti and thyme. Instead of weighing down the cutlets with thick breading, she sautés them in a light flour-and-egg coating.

Pairing Suggestion

Dry white sparkling wine. Made in the same way as Champagne (with a secondary fermentation inside the bottle to produce bubbles) and often with the same grape varieties (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier), these crisp sparkling wines can be nearly as complex as Champagne—and are much less expensive. Pour the NV Mumm’s Napa Brut Prestige ($20) or NV Domaine Chandon Blanc de Noirs ($22) with salty or fried foods and white-meat chicken dishes.

Cheese-Stuffed Chicken Cutlets with Mustard Sauce

The taste of this was excellent.  I didn't a WOW appearance (I might not serve it at a dinner party) but it was a family hit taste-wise.  The mustard sauce paired with this nicely.  Drizzled some of it on a side of orzo and it was a yummy addition to it.

Excellent. I used a different cheese as I didn't have Havarti on hand.

My family enjoyed this recipe.  I didn't have Havarti, so I used Port Salut cheese.  It was delicious.  The timing for cooking the chicken is perfect and I like the egg wash.  It is lighter.
