Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken breasts, sliced thin**
  • 6 slices Swiss cheese
  • 4 slices prosciutto ham
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  2. Lay your thinly sliced pieces of chicken**  flat and then place 1 ½ pieces of Swiss on top. Then add a piece of prosciutto. Roll up as best you can and place a couple toothpicks to keep them in place.

  3. Heat oil in an oven proof skillet. Add the chicken rolls and brown for about 3 minutes on each side. Then place in the oven for 20 minutes.

  4. Serve immediately. 

  5. **Note** Sometimes you can buy thinly sliced chicken. If you cannot find this, take a boneless, skinless chicken breast and slice as you would a bagel. If the slices are too thick, place in a baggie and using a meat tenderizer or heavy skillet, pound it thin.
