Chicken Cordon Bleu Roll-Ups
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 slices Swiss cheese
4 slices ham
1 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
Toothpicks
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap. Pound them to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.
Lay a slice of Swiss cheese and a slice of ham on top of each chicken breast.
Roll up the chicken breasts, securing the ends with toothpicks.
In a shallow dish, combine bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and pepper.
Place the flour in another shallow dish and the beaten eggs in a third dish.
Dip each chicken roll-up into the flour, then the beaten eggs, and finally coat them with the breadcrumb mixture.
Heat some oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken roll-ups on all sides.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
