I made this tonight and it was awesome!!! I did not use the mustard, instead i used an egg white with a bit of water beaten together. I also seasoned my flour with lots of black pepper, garlic powder and poultry seasoning. I also used Italian style bread crumbs. I baked it with the lightest spray of olive oil in the pan and on top of chicken (on the top rack for premium crispiness) I used 97% fat free virginia ham sliced at the deli counter thin and low sodium reduced fat alpine lace swiss cheese also sliced thin at the deli counter. I used just one slice of each per piece of chicken, which I sliced each breast into two breasts pounded them out thin folded ham in half long way, same with cheese, and rolled it up into a tight pinwheel using about three toothpicks to hold it together. MY HUSBAND RAVED!!! he was very skeptical that this was not on his diet!!!!!!!!!!
