100% would make again

“The first time I made this, it was an instant hit and we agreed I wouldn't change a thing about the recipe. Mustard may seem like an odd ingredient, but it adds a really nice touch.” This rich-tasting dish is surprisingly light. Beverly Norris - Evanston, Wyoming

  • 4 Servings
  • Prep: 25 min. Bake: 45 min.

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
  • 1/2 cup honey Dijon mustard, divided
  • 4 thin slices deli ham
  • 4 slices reduced-fat Swiss cheese
  • 1 can (8 ounces) unsweetened crushed pineapple, well drained
  • 1-1/2 cups panko (Japanese) bread crumbs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • SAUCE:
  • 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) reduced-fat reduced-sodium condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
  • 1/8 teaspoon dried tarragon

Directions

  • Flatten chicken breasts to 1/4-in. thickness. Spread 1 tablespoon mustard over each; layer with ham, cheese and pineapple. Fold chicken over pineapple; secure with toothpicks. Brush bundles with remaining mustard.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Roll bundles in bread crumb mixture; place in an 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Discard toothpicks.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the sauce ingredients. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Serve with chicken. Yield: 4 servings.

This is really good. I have already made it twice and plan on making it again. It is fairly simple yet elegant enough for company. My husband loves it.
