List of Ingredients

8 ounces boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup diced smoked ham
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup chiffonaded spinach
1/2 cup flour
1 egg
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
2 tablespoons butter


Recipe

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Pound out chicken breast to about 1/4-inch. Combine equal amounts of spinach, ham and Swiss cheese and form a ball about the size of a grapefruit. Carefully wrap the flattened chicken breast around the ball mixture and put on sheet tray. Freeze rolundo until solid. Once frozen, roll in flour, shaking off excess. Beat egg in a shallow dish and dredge chicken, shaking off excess. Coat with seasoned bread crumbs and refreeze. When needed, remove from freezer and let rolundo thaw slightly. Once softened, cut into 1-inch medallions, top off with butter and bake for about 15 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Yield: 2 servings
