Chicken Cordon Bleu

4 thin slices ham

4 1/4 inch slices Swiss cheese (We have found we actually really like Monterey Jack cheese instead, it still has a strong flavor and melts better.)

Chicken flavored crackers, tortilla chips, any crackers (for dipping)

Heat chicken and hot sauce in a skillet over medium heat, until heated through.

Winger’s Sticky Fingers Copycat Recipe

1 package frozen breaded chicken strips

6 Tablespoons Franks Hot Sauce (It has to be Franks Hot Sauce, no other sauce will taste the same)

4 Tablespoons water

1  1/2 cups brown sugar

Prepare chicken strip as directed on package.  You can bake for less calories, but they taste more authentic fried.

Heat hot sauce, water, and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, until sugar is dissolved.

Pour over chicken, and enjoy!  Can serve with ranch dressing for dipping or on a salad which is great with dried cranberries like at Winger’s.
