Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 slices Thinly sliced ham
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
- 0.5 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place each chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet to gently pound each breast to about 1/4-inch thickness.
Place two slices of ham and two slices of Swiss cheese on each pounded chicken breast.
Roll up each chicken breast tightly, starting from the narrow end, securing with toothpicks to maintain their shape.
In a shallow dish, combine the gluten-free flour, salt, and pepper.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs.
In a third shallow dish, mix together the gluten-free breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Dredge each chicken roll-up in the flour mixture, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs.
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken roll-ups and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
Remove the toothpicks before serving, and enjoy your gluten-free Chicken Cordon Bleu!
