Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs

4 oz sliced ham (preferably black forest or honey ham)

4 oz Swiss cheese, sliced

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 large eggs, beaten

1 cup panko breadcrumbs (preferably seasoned)

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

12 slider buns

½ cup Dijon mustard

½ cup mayonnaise

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken:

    - Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

      - Pound the chicken thighs to about ¼ inch thickness using a meat mallet. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

        Assemble the Chicken Cordon Bleu:

          - Place approximately one slice of ham and one slice of Swiss cheese on each piece of chicken. Roll the chicken tightly, jelly-roll style, and secure with toothpicks if necessary.

            Bread the Chicken:

              - Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls – one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.

                - Dredge each chicken roll first in flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the egg, and finally coat generously with panko breadcrumbs.

                  Bake the Chicken:

                    - Place the breaded chicken rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray with cooking oil for extra crispiness.

                      - Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the outside is golden brown.

                        Prepare the Sliders:

                          - While the chicken is baking, mix together the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise in a small bowl.

                            - Slice the slider buns in half and spread the mustard-mayo mixture on both cut sides.

                              Assemble the Sliders:

                                - Once the chicken is done, allow it to rest for a few minutes before removing the toothpicks and slicing each roll into halves or quarters, depending on your preferred slider size.

                                  - Place a piece of chicken cordon bleu on the bottom half of each slider bun. Top with the top half of the bun.

                                    Garnish and Serve:

                                      - Optionally, garnish each slider with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes!
