- Ready In:
- 40mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Yields:
-
5-6 small bundles
- Serves:
- 3-4
ingredients
- 1 package thin sliced boneless skinless chicken breast (I use Purdue scallopini)
- 1⁄4 lb sliced ham (I get Virginia baked ham from the deli)
- 1⁄4 lb swiss cheese
- 1 egg
- 1⁄4 cup milk
- 1 1⁄2 - 2 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
directions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Combine egg and milk in small bowl and place breadcrumbs on plate.
- Dip chicken into egg/milk mixture then coat one side with breadcrumb mixture and place breadcrumb side down in 13 X 9 glass baking dish.
- After all pieces are in baking dish place cheese then ham on each piece of chicken. (I usually tear the slice of cheese in half so that when I put it on the chicken it covers the whole thing - any remaining cheese or ham I just divide between the chicken).
- Roll chicken making sure to keep cheese and ham tucked inside and place crease side down in dish.
- Top with remaining breadcrumbs.
- Bake for 35 minutes until juices run clear.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I love to cook! I'm constantly paging through cooking magazines and looking up new recipes online. I'll often take a recipe and make changes to give it my own personal touch. I love experimenting with different foods and ingredients. I travel 750 miles per week for work so meals that are fast, easy, and delicious are very important to me. I enjoy hosting and attending Tastefully Simple parties and plan on becoming a consultant by the end of the year. My wonderful boyfriend is my number one guinea pig, although he's not complaining :)
