Ingredients
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts4 slices provolone or swiss cheese4 slices deli honey ham2 Tb ground flaxseed1 egg white1/4 c skim milk1/2 c crushed cornflakes1 Tb onion powder1 Tb garlic powder1/2 tsp salt1/2 tsp black pepper1/2 tsp dried oregano1/2 tsp dried basil1 tsp dried parsleyExtra Virgin Olive Oil cooking spray
Directions
1. Preheat oven t0 375 degrees. Spray bottom of a 13 X 9 pan, or large casserole dish. Set aside.
2. Cover each breast with plastic wrap. Using a mallet, pound out the chicken until it is very thin, but not tearing.
3. Place one slice of cheese and one slice of ham on each breast. Roll up, and then let sit seam-side-down while you prepare the dredging station.
4. Set up a dredging station. In the first bowl, place ground flaxseed and spices. In the second, whisk together the egg white and milk to create a wash. In the third, crush the cornflakes into small bits (I put cornflakes into ziplock bag and then use a rolling pin to crush up).
5. Very carefully dredge each breast from the flaxseed to the eggwash, to the cornflakes. Place seam-side-down in the baking dish. Add more garlic/onion powders to taste, if you prefer.
6. Spray each breast with a quick blast of EVOO spray to brown the tops. Cook at 375 for 30 minutes or until cheese bubbles out. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
