Chicken A La Impress Me recipe

6 servings

6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts

12 slices smoked ham

3/4 cup shredded Gruyere cheese

1/4 cup julienned carrots

1/4 cup julienned zucchini

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place chicken breasts between two sheets of wax paper or plastic wrapping, and pound with a meat mallet to flatten.

Cover each flattened breast with a slice or two of ham.

Place 2 tablespoons cheese and a bit of carrot and a zucchini on the end of each chicken breast.

Roll up each breast, and fasten with toothpicks.

In a large skillet, heat a small amount of oil over medium high heat.

Cook chicken breasts in hot oil for 2 to 3 minutes to lightly brown.

Place browned rolls in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
