Take each slice of raw chicken, spread with cream cheese and lay a piece of ham on the chicken, roll up. Use tooth picks to hold together ... Roll each piece in seasoned flour. Heat oil for frying.
In a fry pan with hot canola oil, lightly brown each piece of chicken seam side down for around 4 minutes on each side. Place in a 13x9 baking pan lightly greased with cooking spray . Pour sauce over chicken and sprinkle with Italian flavored bread crumbs. Bake for 1 hour until bubbly and thickened.... Serving suggestions: Use part of the cordon bleu sauce and toss with boiled pasta of choice or rice (there is alot of sauce to use with pasta, or you can also use some of the sauce to dip with garlic knots) . Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.
