Description

These Easy Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites are a delicious and simple appetizer made with flaky biscuit dough filled with savory oven roasted chicken, smoked ham, and sharp cheddar cheese. Perfectly baked until golden brown, these bite-sized treats are great for parties, snacks, or quick meals.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 can of refrigerated biscuits
  • 1/4 lb oven roasted chicken lunch meat, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 lb smoked ham lunch meat, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 lb sharp cheddar cheese, sliced
  • Cooking spray (for greasing pan)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the bites.
  2. Prepare Cupcake Pan: Spray a cupcake pan with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking. Open the can of refrigerated biscuits and divide each biscuit in half. Press each half flat and press it into each cupcake slot, forming a base.
  3. Assemble Bites: Add a small pinch of oven roasted chicken into each biscuit cup, then place a slice of sharp cheddar cheese on top. Follow with a small pinch of smoked ham, and top with another slice of cheddar cheese. Repeat this layering for the remainder of the biscuit halves.
  4. Bake: Place the cupcake pan in the oven and bake for 13 minutes or until the biscuit edges turn golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bites to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your warm, cheesy Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites!

Notes

  • You can substitute sharp cheddar cheese with Swiss cheese for a more traditional cordon bleu flavor.
  • Use pre-sliced lunch meats for convenience, but finely chopping the meat can help it fit better inside the biscuit cups.
  • Make sure to spray the cupcake pan well to prevent sticking and help with easy removal.
  • These bites are best served warm but can also be reheated in the oven for a few minutes.
  • To make it more flavorful, consider adding a sprinkle of black pepper or herbs like thyme before baking.
