Savory Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta Delight



Ingredients


- 1 lb chicken breast, diced
- 6 oz ham, diced
- 8 oz Swiss cheese, shredded
- 12 oz egg noodles
- 4 tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tsp mustard
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs

Instructions


1. Prepare the Ingredients:
Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Cook the Chicken and Ham:
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add diced chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about PT10M (10 minutes). Add the diced ham and cook for another PT3M (3 minutes). Remove from skillet and set aside.

3. Prepare the Sauce:
In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, and dried thyme. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

4. Create the Cheese Sauce:
Add cream cheese to the skillet, stirring until melted and smooth. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and mustard until well combined. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer.

5. Thicken the Sauce:
Mix cornstarch with a small amount of the sauce in a separate bowl, then return to the skillet. Simmer until the sauce begins to thicken, approximately PT5M (5 minutes).

6. Combine Noodles and Sauce:
Stir in the cooked noodles, chicken, ham, and Swiss cheese. Continue to cook on low heat until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined.

7. Finish with Parmesan and Panko:
Add grated Parmesan cheese to the pasta mixture, stirring to ensure even distribution. In a separate pan, toast panko breadcrumbs for PT3M (3 minutes), until golden brown.

8. Serve:
Dish the pasta onto plates and generously sprinkle toasted panko on top for an added crunch.
