Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. When using chicken, opt for boneless, skinless chicken breasts. You can also use boneless, skinless chicken thighs, but they will be a little more fatty.
  • Pound the chicken breasts until they are ¼ inch thick. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Wrap each chicken breast with a slice of ham and a slice of cheese. You can use any type of ham and cheese that you like.
  • Dip the chicken breasts in the egg wash. This will help the bread crumbs adhere to the chicken.
  • Roll the chicken breasts in the bread crumbs. Make sure that the chicken breasts are completely coated in bread crumbs.
  • Pan-fry the chicken breasts in butter over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the chicken breasts with your favorite sides. Some popular sides include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and green salad.
