Hi, I'm Paul Alley, 13 years old about to turn 14. I like to cook, swim, playing the piano, and hanging out with friends. My technique for cooking is "cooking for kids". I mean by this is by taking recipies and changing some thing to make it kid(or teen) friendly, One of the most easy recipies is a Chicken Cordon Bleu.

Paul's Kid Friendly Chicken Cordon Bleu
 Boneless Chicken breast(bonless, skinless)                            
1/2 lb. of swiss cheese
1 lb. of ham(doesn't matter what kind)
2 cups Original bread crumbs
2 eggs
non stick spray

you will need...

glass casserole dish

First you will need to preheat the oven at 350 degrees F. then cut chicken into cubes or bite size pieces, then beat two eggs in a bowl and dunk chicken cubes in the egg mixture. Once your finished put them in a baggy. Add the bread crumbs to baggy and coat the chicken again with them. (shake and bake style) Then spray the casserole dish with non stick spray. Layer the bottom of the dish with ham, then cheese, then all the chicken, then you can layer it any way you want just make sure you leave 2-3 pieces of ham for the end! You want to finish with a little bit of cheese at the very end which makes a nice "presentation". With the last pieces of ham, cut into thin squares and sprinkle them on top of the chicken, then sprinkle the last of the cheese. Once that is done, put into preheated oven for 35-45 min. Check the chicken in the middle of the dish. If it is pink or red, it needs too cook longer.
