Ingredient Checklist- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 4 slices deli Swiss cheese
- 4 slices deli ham
- 2 toothpicks
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- cooking spray
Directions
Instructions Checklist- Step 1
Place a chicken breast on a flat work surface. Slice horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Place chicken breast between 2 sheets of heavy plastic on a solid, level surface; lightly pound with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a 1/4-inch thickness. Repeat with remaining chicken breast.

2
Season each chicken breast with salt and pepper. Spread Dijon mustard on top. Place 1 slice of cheese on each breast. Top each with 2 slices of ham and 1 slice of cheese. Roll each breast up and secure with a toothpick.
- Step 3
Place flour in a shallow bowl. Place egg in a second bowl. Mix panko bread crumbs and grated Parmesan in a third bowl.
- Step 4
Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Step 5
Meanwhile, dredge chicken breasts in flour; shake off excess. Dip into beaten egg, allowing any excess egg to drip back into the bowl. Press into bread crumb mixture to coat both sides; place breaded chicken breasts onto a plate and spray with nonstick spray. Let sit for 5 minutes while the air fryer preheats, then arrange breaded chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Step 6
Cook in the preheated air fryer for 10 minutes; flip chicken breasts and spray any dry spots with nonstick spray. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 8 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

4 Method Steps
Cut the chicken (1 large (about 300g) chicken breast fillet) in half horizontally. Place 1 chicken piece on a piece of plastic wrap and enclose with wrap. Use a rolling pin to beat evenly until 1cm thick. Unwrap the chicken and top with 2 slices of ham (4 slices ham), overlapping slightly, then top with 2 slices of cheese (4 slices Swiss cheese). Starting from a short end, roll up chicken firmly to enclose. (Don’t worry if the ham or cheese pokes out. It doesn’t need to be too neat.) Repeat with the remaining chicken, ham and cheese to make 2 rolls in total.
Place the flour (50g (1/3 cup) plain flour) in a shallow bowl. Whisk the egg (1 egg) in a separate bowl. Place the breadcrumbs (25g (1/2 cup) panko breadcrumbs) on a plate. Coat 1 chicken roll in the flour and shake off the excess. Dip in the egg then in breadcrumbs, pressing firmly to coat. Repeat with the remaining chicken roll, flour, egg and breadcrumbs.
Spray the chicken rolls with olive oil. Place in an air fryer basket. Cook at 180°C for 7 minutes. Open the air fryer basket and add the tomatoes (2 small bunches cherry truss tomatoes (about 5 on each)) to the basket. Cook for a further 8 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and tomatoes are soft.
Divide the chicken and tomatoes between serving plates. Serve with green beans (Steamed green beans, to serve) topped with garlic and herb butter.
