		Breast halves
4		Ham slices - extra lean
4		Swiss cheese slices - very
		Thin
1/4 cup	15g / 0.5oz	All-purpose flour
1		Salt

1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Lemon pepper - optional
1/2 cup	73g / 2.6oz	Soft bread crumbs
1		Egg
2 1/2 tablespoons	37ml	Canola oil - or peanut

Recipe Instructions

1. Skin the chicken breasts and pound to 1/4 inch between sheets of waxed paper. 2. Lay one slice of fully cooked thin ham on chicken, then one slice of very thin Swiss cheese. Roll up very carefully; secure with wet toothpicks or tie twine around tightly. Unwaxed dental floss makes a good tie. 3. Mix the flour, pepper, salt and lemon-pepper (optional). Dust this over the chicken rolls lightly. Dip one at a time into the beaten egg. Roll in the bread crumbs. 4. Heat the oil in a 9 or 10-inch heavy skillet with lid. Place the chicken rolls into hot oil, seam side down. Saute about 10 minutes, turning carefully once or twice. 5. Add 2 tablespoons of water or chicken broth, cover immediately, and turn heat to simmer. Simmer for 10-15 minutes. Remove from pan, let stand 3-4 minutes, then carefully remove the toothpicks or twine. Serve warm.
