Ingredients
  

  • 8 thin slices of ham
  • 8 ounces Swiss cheese sliced or shredded
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts about 2 pounds
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 cups cornflake cereal crushed, or substitute breadcrumbs
  • 6 tablespoons butter melted

For the sauce:

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1-2 teaspoons yellow mustard to taste

Instructions
 

  • Pat the chicken dry and cut each breast in half horizontally. Flatten with a mallet between plastic wrap to create thin, even pieces.
  • Top each piece with ham and shredded cheese. Roll tightly, tuck sides, and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Set the oven to 400°F. Unwrap chicken, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Dip chicken in melted butter, then cornflake crumbs, pressing lightly. Place on a greased baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until chicken reaches 160°F.
  • Make sauce by combining mayo and mustard. Adjust mustard to taste. Serve with the chicken rolls.

Notes

  • Ensure the chicken is pounded thinly for consistent cooking.
  • The better flavor will result from using good Swiss cheese.
  • Chill the rolled chicken in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to make it easier to work with.
  • For a crunchy exterior, press the cornflake crumbs gently onto the chicken.
