    I don't have a recipe; I just pound the chicken breast flat, roll it up with good quality ham & real Swiss cheese, tie it up, put a rub on it and grill it, indirect. Call it anything you want....

    Painter,[p]I've made chicken similar to Chicken Cordon Bleu by using chicken, prosciutto and bleu cheese and adding things like Mrs. Dog's mustard, tomato, and onion. Outstanding! Only if you like really strong flavors, though.[p]Cornfed

    Cornfed,Mouth watering now. Have to do this weekend, something about prosciutto that trips my flavor sensors and bleu cheese sounds like adifferent twist. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks again Painter

    Cornfed,
    That sounds like something my husband would love. Maytag blue cheese is available here now. I know what's for dinner tonight! JCA

    J Appledog,
    Thanks. Up untill now I was getting it direct from Iowa. A few years ago while I was serving my Uncle Sam in Southeast Asia my parents would send me "Care Packages" containing Maytag blue cheese. In that heat the mail clerk would get the cheese to me real quick. Thanks again

    Fireball,[p]Last time I made this I used Roquefort blue cheese which is my personal favorite. Coincidentally, there was a really cool article in the NYT weekend magazine a couple weeks ago and a special on Emeril a week or so ago about blue veined cheeses. I'll post the article if I can find it.[p]Ummmm....cheese....

    Painter,[p]Cool, let me know how it turns out. I just pretty much layered on the ingredients one by one. I've only made this a few times and never measured the amounts of each ingredient used. It's tasted great each time, though.[p]Cornfed
