NuWave Chicken Cordon Bleu with Brussel Sprouts

Image
OK I cheated.  I used the Barber Foods Cordon Bleu.  They make it almost as good as you can homemade.  The difference is the reduced cooking time in the NuWave. 1 Box Barber Chicken Cordon Bleu 2 lbs of fresh brussel sprouts 1/2 yellow onion 1/4 cup olive oil 2 cloves of garlic Garlic salt Cut the ends off the brussel sprouts and wash.  Cut the onion up into edible sized portions.  Chop the garlic and add all three to a small baking dish.  Cover and toss with the olive oil and spice with garlic salt.  Set aside. Put the Cordon bleu on the 4" rack in a bread pan. and cook for 10 minutes.  Remove the chicken and place the brussel sprout mixture in and cook for 15 minutes on the 1" rack.  When time is done, flip the rack, put the brussel sprouts under the rack and the chicken on the 4" rack for 10 minutes.  When time is done the internal chicken temperature should be 165 or greater.
