Ingredients:

Serving

4 double chicken breasts, skinless and boneless (about 7-oz each)
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
8 thin slices deli ham
16 thin slices gruyere or 16 swiss cheese
2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
1/4 cup flour
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 tsp olive oil, divided
2 eggs
2 tsp water

Directions:

Preheat oven (always keep it clean) to 350 degrees F. Lay the chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, gently pound the chickaen to 1/4-inch thickness. Take care not to pound too hard because the meat may tear or create holes. Lay 2 slices of cheese on each breast, followed by 2 slices of ham, and 2 more of cheese; leaving a 1/2-inch margin on all sides to help seal the roll. Tuck in the sides of the breast and roll up tight like a jellyroll. Squeeze the log gently to seal.
Season the flour with salt and pepper; spread out on waxed paper or in a flat dish. Mix the breadcrumbs with thyme, kosher salt, pepper, and oil. The oil will help the crust brown. Beat together the eggs and water, the mixture should be fluid. Lightly dust the chikken with flour, then dip in the egg mixture. Gently coat in the bread crumbs. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet, and brown roulades on all sides. Carefully transfer the roulades to a baking pan and bake for 45 minutes until browned and cooked through. Cut into pinwheels before serving.
