Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Slovak
Ingredients: 4 Chicken breasts; 1 tsp Garlic granules; 1/2 tsp Black pepper; 1 tsp Salt; 1 tsp Parsley; 5 tbsp Mustard; 8 slices Ham; 8 Sliced cheese; 2 Eggs; 1/4 cup Milk; 1/5 cup Breadcrumbs; 3–4 tbsp Vegetable oil

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Trim the chicken breasts and pound them into thin cutlets. If needed, cut the meat to get the desired number of pieces.
Season the cutlets with salt and pepper, spread with pressed garlic, and sprinkle with dried parsley.
Spread each cutlet with mustard, top with a slice of ham and a slice of cheese, and roll up.
Dip the rolls in the eggs beaten with the milk, then coat in breadcrumbs.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper, brush with oil or coat with cooking spray, and arrange the rolls on it.
Bake in a preheated oven at 210°C (410°F) for 35 minutes.

Tip: Arrange the ham and cheese so there is a finger-width border of uncovered meat around the edges, then roll up tightly. This keeps the melted cheese from leaking onto the baking sheet.
