True to that the sauce does not thicken but the chicken is great my family has never tried ckicken cordon bleu before and my 3 year old daughter loved it and even wanted more.

This is a really good, easy recipe. However, I made some modifications. The cream sauce definitely needs white wine in it. It gives it an amazing flavor. Also, add cornstarch or flour because it does not thicken on its own.
