CHICKEN CORDON BLEU CASSEROLE

In a casserole dish layer bite size peices of chicken breast.  Then add a layer of diced up ham.  Next layer slices of Swiss cheese.
For the top- crush 1 cup of Ritz crackers adding 3 Tbsp. Of melted butter.  Combine and layer on top of cheese.
Bake at 350 for 30 to 35 minutes until juices run clear and cracker crust is browned a bit.
While that's cooking prepare sauce.
Sauce:
3 Tbsp. butter3
3 Tbsp. flour
1 cup milk
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

To create the sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan slowly. Whisk in the flour and cook for just a couple of minutes. Then slowly pour in the chicken broth and milk. Make sure to continue whisking for about 5 minutes or so as the sauce thickens.
Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in the Dijon, Worcestershire, and a little salt and pepper to taste.
