Butcher's Advice

1. Baking:

   • Place the cordon bleus on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
   • Spray or lightly brush the cordon bleu with olive oil or butter to help them brown.
   • Bake for about 20 minutes at 190°, turning them halfway through cooking for even cooking.

   • Cooking in a pan:

     • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.
     • Add enough cooking oil with a little butter to cover the bottom of the pan lightly.
     • Place the cordon bleus in the preheated pan.
     • Cook for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side, carefully turning with tongs.
