Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • 4 slices of Swiss cheese
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Flatten the chicken breasts using a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are even in thickness.
  • Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Place a slice of ham and a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each chicken breast.
  • Roll up the chicken breasts tightly, tucking in the sides as you go.
  • Secure each chicken roll with toothpicks to prevent them from coming undone during cooking.
  • In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Roll each chicken roll in the flour mixture, making sure to coat all sides evenly.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat.
  • Add the chicken rolls to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until they are browned and crispy.
  • Transfer the chicken rolls to a baking dish and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
