If you love traditional chicken cordon bleu, this steak version will knock your socks off. It is incredibly flavorful and makes a beautiful presentation for a special occasion or holiday meal.

Ingredients for Steak Cordon Bleu:

  • Sirloin Steak ~ Round Steak will also work but will not be quite as tender.

How to Grill Steak Cordon Bleu:
