Ingredients
- 3 3 large chicken breasts cut in half to form two thinner cutlets (see note)
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 3 large eggs
- 1 ½ 1 ½ cups Panko bread crumbs
- 1 1 cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese
- ½ ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 2 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 12 12 slices deli ham (see note)
- 6 6 large slices of swiss cheese
Dipping Sauce:
- 2 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9X13-inch baking dish.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and lightly season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Whisk the eggs together in a shallow pie plate or dish. In another shallow dish, toss together the panko, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Dip the chicken into the egg mixture and immediately press it into the dry mixture, pressing the mixture into both sides of the chicken. Place the chicken in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake uncovered for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and layer two slices of ham across each chicken piece, followed by a slice of Swiss cheese to cover most of the ham/chicken.
- Return to the oven and bake for another 5 or so minutes until the cheese is melted.
- While the chicken bakes, whisk together the dipping sauce ingredients.
- Serve the chicken warm with the dipping sauce on the side.

Notes
- Chicken: if the chicken breasts you are using aren't thick enough to cut in half (to form two thinner pieces), pound them slightly and consider using a few more chicken breasts to equal the six pieces you would have if following the recipe instructions.
- Ham: my favorite brand of ham deli meat is Hormel Naturals. The honey ham is delicious and works great in this recipe.
