Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken breast See Note 1, boneless
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1/8 tsp white pepper
- 4 lices ham lean
- 4 lices fontina cheese or swiss cheese
- olive oil
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup chicken stock or dry white wine
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Lay chicken breasts between plastic wrap or in a plastic bag and pound until thin, about 1/2" thick. If large breasts, slice horizontally to make cutlets.
- In a bowl whisk together the mustard, maple syrup and white pepper and brush half of the mixture on each breast. Place a slice of ham and cheese on each chicken breast. Start at the narrowest end of the pounded chicken breast and then roll up. Secure with a toothpicks.
- Brush each chicken roll with remaining maple mustard sauce. Roll in Panko bread crumbs, press the crumbs on chicken to adhere.
- Transfer the chicken rolls to a greased baking dish. Drizzle some more olive oil over each chicken roll. To keep moist, add 1/4 cup of chicken stock or a dry white wine in the baking dish to cook with chicken. Cover with foil.
- Bake for 15 minutes in the middle of the oven. For a browned top I remove foil and continue to cook uncovered for another 5 minutes to brown the crumbs. Chicken is cook when internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Serve immediately with any pan drippings poured over and on a bed of sautéed spinach or other vegetables.
Notes
- Number of chicken breasts will vary due to size and weight, but 4 were used for nutrition values.
