Really good flavors.This is very scaleable, double or even triple the recipe. Only have Frozen chicken, use it, everything the same. Fo Fa -

Chicken Cordon Bleu / instant pot Chicken Cordon Bleu / instant pot
I recommend making this in the oven at 350 in a 13x9 baking dish and use the boiler to finish the top and crisp it up .This turned out kinda too soupy for my liking. This was made in a ninja foodie, so i was able to crisp up the top , for a regular Instantpot , I would use the oven and not even bother with it. I used chicken tenders and not chicken Breast , and i wrap the ham slices over the chicken tenders, that helped when taking them out and making plates. 🌈NinjaMommaKitchen🌈 -
