A delightful twist on a classic dish, these chicken rolls are stuffed with ham and cheese, breaded, and baked to perfection.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.
Pounding the chicken evenly helps it cook uniformly.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
Seasoning the chicken enhances its natural flavor.
Place a slice of ham and a portion of cheese on each chicken breast. Roll up tightly and secure with toothpicks if needed.
Rolling tightly ensures the filling stays inside during cooking.
Prepare three separate bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs and water, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with thyme and olive oil.
Organizing the breading station makes the process smoother.
Coat each chicken roll in flour, then dip in the egg mixture, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
Ensure an even coating for a crispy crust.
Place the breaded chicken rolls in a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Using a meat thermometer ensures the chicken is fully cooked.
Let the rolls rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the chicken moist.
