Chicken Cordon Suisse with Hollandaise


This is about as simple as dinner can get. The rice is done in the microwave with salt and olive oil. When it's done a few drops of lemon juice are stirred in with a fork to fluff the rice. The Chicken Cordon Suisse is made fresh at Micthell's so all I had to do was bake them at 375F for 25 minutes. When the cheese leaks out they're done. 

The broccoli was steamed for 3 minutes, cooled under running water and reheated in olive oil just before serving.

Hollandaise

1 egg yolk
1/3 cup butter melted, not hot
1/2 lemon juiced - Mitchell's lemons contain significantly more juice than Save On or Safeway 
1 tsp cold water
pinch salt

Whisk the melted butter into the egg yolk a teaspoon at a time till it's all incorporated. Whisk in salt, water and lemon juice. Heat gently on induction burner or over boiling water till lumps melt and sauce thickens. Serve.

Just yum.
