Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices Thinly sliced ham
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.
Lay the chicken breasts on a cutting board and use a meat mallet to pound them to an even thickness, approximately 1/2 inch.
Place one slice of ham and one slice of Swiss cheese on top of each chicken breast.
Carefully roll up each chicken breast, tucking in the sides to form a bundle, and secure with toothpicks if needed.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one containing the flour, one with the eggs and milk whisked together, and one with the breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Dredge each chicken bundle in the flour, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere evenly.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken bundles on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. (This step helps lock in juices and adds a crispy crust.)
Transfer the chicken bundles to the prepared baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is baking, prepare the honey-mustard dipping sauce by whisking together the honey, Dijon mustard, and mayonnaise in a small bowl.
Remove the chicken bundles from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before removing the toothpicks.
Serve the Malibu Chicken Bundles hot with the honey-mustard dipping sauce on the side.
