I also found this recipe in Runner's World and we LOVE it! It's awesome as-is but I decided to try it as a mock chicken cordon bleu. I browned breaded chicken and put it in a baking dish. Covered it with Deli Ham and then poured the sauce on top! Baked it for about 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Absolutely delicious!
