Chicken Cordon Blue Strata.


Chicken Cordon Blue Strata

Phyllo dough, thawed
Butter, melted
Chicken, cooked and shredded
Ham, diced
Swiss Cheese, shredded
Gruyere cheese, shredded
Spinach
Tomatoes
Salt and pepper

Remove a sheet of phyllo dough from the package.  Brush with melted butter and place in the bottom of a spring form pan.  Repeat, layering the sheets of phyllo to form a base on the bottom of the pan and edges up the side of the pan.

Make strata layers inside your phyllo crust.  Layer chicken, ham, cheese, spinach and tomatoes.  Repeat layers and press down of filling ingredients as you go.

When spring form pan is full of filling ingredients, finish by making a phyllo layer on the top.  Bring outside edge pieces of phyllo over the top, and also layer new pieces of phyllo dough and tuck them into the sides of the spring form pan.

Bake for 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown.  Cool.  Slice into wedges to serve.

*{I saw this recipe made on a local morning show and decided to try it.  It was really good - but the recipe is written horrible, with no measurements.  If you are interested in making this recipe click here to see the segment}.

  1. This is really good - I just wish the recipe was better written. If you want to make it {which I highly recommend} watch the link to the TV segment posted in red.

    Note, I left out the rice, I didn't think it was needed and to me seemed like to many carbohydrates already in the dish!

    Enjoy!
