Ingredients

  • 4 large half boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • salt and pepper
  • 4 thin pieces baked ham
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese
  • 1/2 c. flour
  • 2 well-beaten eggs
  • 1 1/2 c. bread crumbs
  • 4 Tbsp. margarine
  • 4 Tbsp. oil

Method

  • Lay chicken breasts smooth side down between two sheets of waxed paper.
  • Pound each breast to the thickness of between 1/8 to 1/4-inch (use meat mallet or rolling pin).
  • Mend any tears in meat. Sprinkle breasts lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Keeping smooth side down, place a piece of ham and cheese on half of the breast.
  • Trim if it overlaps.
  • Fold the other half over and pinch and pound the edge together to seal.
  • Dip lightly in flour, then eggs, then bread crumbs.
  • Place them on waxed paper on a plate and refrigerate for at least an hour to give crust drying time.
  • Saute chicken in oil and margarine, turning frequently for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Serve immediately.
