Take-out Tuesday, Chicken Cordon Bleu Bubble-up
One of my favorite dinner casseroles is a bubble-up,
raw biscuit dough is submerged with other ingredients
and baked to creamy perfection
This bubble up is a twist on Chicken Marco Polo
Traditional Chicken Marco Polo is made by pounding a chicken breast
into a thin and even piece of chicken
Then it is filled with ham and cheese,
rolled up, and coated in a bread crumb crust and baked
This is a short cut version of the traditional
A chicken tender {a tender is a piece of a chicken breast}
is placed on a ham slice
The ham slice is wrapped around the chicken
and placed in a prepared casserole dish, seam side down
I went one step further and cut the rolls in half,
to ensure the chicken would cook more evenly
The rolls are then topped with a piece of Havarti cheese
A simple, yet delicious, sauce is made
by mixing cream of chicken soup and sour cream
Cover the rolls with sauce
At this point you can cover the dish and refrigerate for baking later if desired
About 1 1/2 hours before serving,
place dish uncovered in a 300 degree oven and bake for 1 hour
This initial hour of slow cooking keeps the chicken nice and tender
After baking for 1 hour
Cut the biscuits into 1/4s and place pieces in between ham rolls,
submerging them down into the sauce
Top casserole with Parmesan cheese
Increase oven temp to 325 degrees
and return dish to oven for 30-35 minutes
until biscuits are golden and cooked through
It is creamy dreamy delicious

If you haven’t tried making a bubble up,

turns into soft pillows to soak up flavors

Delicious Jenna! Love any meal you can prep ahead to pull out and pop in the oven later!
Me too!
What a mouthwatering casserole! I adore chicken Cordon Bleu, but have never tried the bubble-up…see what I have been missing out!! Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe, Jenna!
Thank you Angie, bubble ups are so easy and fun to make!
Jenna, I used to make an easy version of Chicken Cordon Bleu. Your recipe looks delicious and I know that the hubby would love it. Happy Tuesday ☔️
Thanks Pam 😋
Holy Moly! That looks good! I love chicken cordon bleu. This would make a good Easter main course,
Thanks Rita, so easy!
What a perfect version of Chicken Cordon Bleu. even better!
Thanks Martha, yes, Chicken Cordon Bleu made easy!
This looks delicious Jenna. I love easy as well and this recipe fits the bill. The other options sounds just as delicious. I want to try the Blueberry Bacon Biscuit Bake as well. Loving these recipes………
Thanks so much Emily, I love to make bubble-ups 🙂
Jenna, this looks scrumptious! I am starving this morning, and I can’t wait to try this recipe. It looks like the perfect comfort food. Enjoy your day!
Thanks Shannon, so easy and so good!
EVERYTHING looks delicious! But I am particularly bubbling with excitement to try a “bubble up,” especially the one with blueberries. Sounds great for an Easter brunch! Georgia Gal
I love any bubble up, they are easy to make and taste so good! Thanks Georgia Gal!
What fun! The blueberry biscuit looks delicious!
thanks Dorothy, as you can see, I love to make bubble-ups 🙂
Yes, and they all look like fun!
A perfect make ahead dinner for company coming this week! A creamy deliciousness that’s not difficult. Thank you Jenna! Enjoy your day my friend!
Thank you Nancy, I hope you enjoy!
Just got home from work… Would you mind sending a plate over??? Sounds good:@)
ha ha, good comfort food for sure!
Oh this looks so delicious! I just love a one dish meal. 😊
Me too, especially ones I can make ahead and pop in the oven later!
I haven’t had chicken cordon bleu in ages. Thanks for sharing this — it looks wonderful and not too hard!
Thanks Jeanie, it’s so easy and so good!
I can’t wait to try this Jenna…it looks so good and easy too. what a combination. Even I can toss this together. LOL
Hugs
Kari @ Me and My Captain
Thanks Kari, I love that you don’t have to cook the chicken first, so easy to throw together!
That looks great. The biscuits would be kind of like dumplings soaking up all those good flavors!
Exactly!
Oh MY! Will be trying this for sure. I like that Rita suggested it would be a good dish for Easter and I agree. Even a small ham is too much for hubby and me and no matter what I do, it always seems to get too salty, so we go to my sister’s and eat hers, ha! But this would be great for us as it is just enough ham and a great version of chicken cordon bleu, YUM! Thanks Jenna! Will be reading all the other suggestions tomorrow, they look awesome as well. I need to go to bed, before these make me really hungry, hehe.
Thanks Cyndi, it is a great dish to make for 2 or a larger group, simple, yet fancy enough for a special occasion, and so easy to put together 🙂
Nope, I’ve never tried a bubble up, but I’m sure going to now! Thank you, Jenna! This sounds heavenly!
Thanks Kitty, I love bubble ups, they’re so easy and so good, let me know how yours turns out!
I make a version of this recipe without the biscuits, but can see clearly that the biscuits add si much!
The biscuits are so good, thanks Michele!
I’ve not heard of a bubble up before like many of the others but I can certainly see why it would be very popular. Are the biscuits crunchy on the top with bottoms that are more like dumplings?
Yes, the biscuits are like dumplings on the bottom, the texture of bubble ups is heavenly! I have seen recipes using homemade biscuit dough instead of canned biscuits, but I haven’t tried that…canned biscuits are so easy!
This looks SO good, Jenna! I am going to make this, and I know my husband will love it. I love your casserole dish, too!
Thanks Pam, it’s so easy and so good, I hope you enjoy it!
