Ingredients
One 5-oz raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast cutlet1 wedge The Laughing Cow Light Original Swiss Cheese (room temperature)1 oz (about 3 slices) 97-98% fat free ham slicesSalt & Pepper to taste.
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Put chicken in a large sealable plastic bag, squeeze out as much air as you can, and seal. Using a meat tenderizer or a can, carefully pound chicken through the bag until it is about 1/4-inch thick. Remove chicken from the bag, and season to taste with salt and pepper on both sides.

Lay the chicken flat and spread the cheese wedge over it. Evenly layer the ham slices on top of the cheese. Starting with one of the longer sides (or any side, if it's square), tightly roll up the chicken breast cutlet, and secure with toothpicks.

Place chicken roll in a baking dish lined with foil and/or sprayed with nonstick spray, and then cover the baking dish with foil.

Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Carefully remove the foil covering the dish. Continue to bake (uncovered) for an additional 15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Enjoy!

    Love the way this turned out. I found it a couple of weeks ago and I've already made it 4 or 5 times. Doesn't take a whole lot of thought and feels like a nice addition to a healthy meal. - 5/6/09

    This is an awesome recipe and took me about 10 minutes to make! I had to use the Mozzarella Laughing Cow cheese (only because that's all I had in my fridge!) and it was delicious! - 6/2/11

    Really good! I thought it would be bland without the breadcrumbs like I used to have, but it wasn't! I might add some Mrs. Dash next time just for a different flavor, but it was really delicious and I will make it again soon! - 9/22/10
