Chicken Cordon Bleu a LA Kerry

Name: Chicken Cordon Bleu a LA Kerry
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 50 min
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients: 1/3 cup panko bread crumbs; 1 teaspoon paprika; 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning (such as Poultry Magic®), or to taste; salt and pepper to taste; 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves; 6 slices white Cheddar cheese (such as Tillamook®); 6 thin slices coppa ham; 1 egg, well beaten; 3 tablespoons butter; 3 tablespoons olive oil; 6 slices white Cheddar cheese (such as Tillamook®); 1/2 cup dry white wine, or more as needed; 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules; 2 tablespoons cornstarch; 1 1/2 cups heavy cream

"I started with a recipe submitted by Behr, but after the chicken was thawed, discovered no Swiss cheese or ham, so I decided to rework it to fit my ingredients. This was a big hit in my large, extended family and is easy to double or triple depending on the number of people at the table. I served it with buttered egg noodles and a green vegetable."
