Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 slices deli-style turkey
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Place the chicken breasts between plastic wrap and pound until about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Layer two slices of turkey and one slice of Swiss cheese on each chicken breast, then roll tightly and secure with toothpicks.
  4. Set up a breading station: one bowl with seasoned flour, one with beaten eggs mixed with milk, and one with panko breadcrumbs combined with garlic powder.
  5. Coat each roll first in flour, then dip in the egg mixture before rolling in breadcrumbs.
  6. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sear each roll until golden brown on all sides (about 4-5 minutes).
  7. Transfer the rolls to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  8. For the sauce, melt remaining butter in a saucepan, whisk in flour, then gradually add milk while stirring until smooth. Add Swiss cheese until melted.
  9. Drizzle the sauce over baked chicken rolls before serving.
