Weight Watchers Turkey Cordon Bleu

This is the ONE thing I can cook that Allen LOVES and asks to have for dinner all the time. Now that we have a functioning kitchen (not yet pretty enough for pictures), I'm making it tonight.

This is a recipe from my Weight Watchers Make it in Minutes cookbook. I believe its a 15 minute recipe.

Turkey Rolls Cordon Bleu (4 Pts.)
If you like your turkey cutlets a bit on the spicy side, brush them with mustard instead of mayonnaise or a combination of the two.

Ingredients
4 Turkey
cutlets 1/4 lb each
4 ounces Ham reduced
sodium thinly sliced
2 ounces reduced fat Swiss cheese (Allen prefers Muenster or Monteray Jack)

3 tablespoons
dry bread crumbs
1 tablespoon
low fat mayo
1/4 cup dry
white wine
1/4 cup Chicken broth reduced sodium
1 teaspoon butter


Preparation
Top each turkey cutlet with a slice of ham and then half slice of cheese. Roll up jelly-roll fashion and secure with toothpicks.

Spread the bread crumbs on a plate. Brush the turkey rolls with the mayonnaise; dip in the crumbs, pressing to coat.

Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium high heat. Add the turkey rolls and cook, turning occasionally until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the wine, broth and butter; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer covered, until the turkey rolls are cooked through and the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.

By slicing a chicken breast in half and pounding thin you could substitute chicken for the turkey with no change in the WW points value.

*The book suggests serving this with a side of herbed linguine and steamed broccoli.
