Chicken Cordon Bleu Sauce

This chicken cordon bleu sauce is incredible! It is so creamy and the flavor is to die for. I could eat the sauce alone with a spoon and be completely happy.

Notes

  • To reduce mess, make your chicken cordon bleu in a skillet, and then make the sauce in the same skillet.
  • If you are baking or roasting your chicken cordon bleu, the sauce can easily be made in a saucepan on the stove.
  • Add a bit of basil or some paprika to add another dimension to your sauce.
  • Give it an extra kick by adding a teaspoon of chili powder, hot sauce, or diced jalapenos to the sauce.
