Because I have a busy schedule, I like to keep a batch of these tender chicken rolls in the freezer. Coated with golden crumbs, they seem fancy enough for company. I've substituted mozzarella cheese for the provolone and pastrami for the ham with equally delicious results. —Barbara Wobser Sandusky, Ohio

Ingredients

  • 8 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
  • 8 thin slices (4 ounces) deli ham
  • 4 slices provolone cheese, halved
  • 2/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup milk

Directions

  • Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness. Place a slice of ham and half slice of provolone cheese on each piece of chicken. Roll up from a short side and tuck in ends; secure with a toothpick.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine the crumbs, Romano cheese and parsley. Pour milk into another bowl. Dip chicken rolls in milk, then roll in crumb mixture.
  • Wrap each of four chicken roll-ups in plastic wrap; place in a large freezer bag. Seal and freeze for up to 2 months. Place the remaining roll-ups, seam side down, on a greased baking sheet. Spritz chicken with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 25 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Remove toothpicks.

This was gourmet for how little time it took.

I've made this several times and it's very good. I like to drizzle a little sun-dried tomato Alfredo sauce over the chicken and serve with a side of fettuccine. I'd also like to try stuffing some ricotta cheese in the chicken with maybe some prosciutto. I bet that would be tasty!

I really enjoyed the convenience of having these in the freezer to pop in the oven. They were very good, but it didn't seem like there was any cheese in it. Still, I'd make it the same again next time because I think adding more cheese would make it even harder to roll up.

first time making it, very delicious, used the thin slices of ham so maybe could have used 2 but tasted great

1 oz. chicken or deli ham or fat-free cheese= 0 carbs, 7 grams protein, 0-1 grams fat and 35 calories. The meat is a protein, not a carb. Other cheese has more fat and calories but if you stay with 3 grams of less fat per oz, no carbs. This info is from my diabetic carb counting and exchange list.

would need to see total fat grams before making

Would like the carb totals before I make this as I am diabetic. Thank you!!!

love it with swiss instead of provolone. Has anyone made it with broccoli and cheese? Please let me know.

This sounds really good but there are no nutritional values included. The number of carbs is very important in our home due to diabetes. Can you send those numbers to me? Thanks.
