This week I have been posting some delicious new recipes that I think would make fantastic party food. Recipes like my Lemon Slice Bites and my delicious Bacon and Onion Dip.
I thought to myself, it is not a party unless there is hot food involved! I have been wanting to make these Mini Chicken Cordon Bleus since I posted my Mini Chicken Kiev Bites. So I recently got creating! I tested and tested again and finally have a great new party recipe for you to try!
They are a delicious crunchy chicken-nugget like morsel full of ham and cheesy goodness. They make for a great family dinner too. Serve with some homemade veggies and steamed veggies or salad. We love to serve our with a little relish or chutney to dip in.

Mini Chicken Cordon Blues
- Total Time: 30
Ingredients
Breadcrumbs
- 3 slices day old bread, I like to use Turkish bread for a really nice crunch

Chicken

- 1 spring onion, roughly chopped
- 2 Tbsp fresh parsley
- ½ tsp chicken stock powder
- salt and pepper, a pinch of each
Filling
- 16 small cubes of mozzarella or Colby cheese
- 50g shaved smoked ham, cut into quarters
Instructions
Then mix like this
- Place breadcrumb ingredients into bowl and blitz for 10-15 secs/speed 7.
- Any leftover unused breadcrumbs (that haven’t touched chicken) can be frozen.
- Place all chicken ingredients into bowl. Speed 8 / 5-10 seconds until smooth and minced.
- Wrap some ham around a cube of cheese.
- Shape a small amount of chicken mince around each cheese and ham bundle. Ensure the ball is completely covered in chicken mince and roll between your palms to ensure it is a nice ball shape.
- Roll ball into breadcrumbs.
- Cooking in the air fryer: Drizzle each ball with a little olive oil. Cook for 12-14 minutes at 200 degrees.
