Preparation
Prepare the ingredients:
Spread the chicken slices on a work surface and beat them lightly with a meat mallet to make them thinner and softer.
Season each slice of chicken with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Filling of the rolls:
On each slice of chicken, place a slice of cooked ham and a slice of cheese.
Gently roll each slice of chicken on itself, forming rolls.
Prepare for the breading:
Prepare three dishes: one with flour, one with beaten egg and one with breadcrumbs.
Dip each roll first in the flour, then in the beaten egg and finally in the breadcrumbs, making sure that the breading adheres well.
Cooking:
Heat a little oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Bake the chicken rolls for about 5-7 minutes per side, until the breading is golden brown and crispy and the cheese inside has melted. You can also cover the pan with a lid to make it easier to cook inside.
Serve:
Once ready, drain the rolls on a plate with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve them hot, perhaps accompanied by a tomato sauce or a fresh salad.
Serving and storage
tips Chicken rolls are perfect for serving with a side of grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh mixed salad. If you have any leftovers, you can store them in the fridge for 1-2 days and reheat them in the oven to maintain the crispiness of the breading.
