List of Ingredients
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
2 ounces thinly sliced smoked ham, divided 4 ways
2 ounces thinly sliced reduced fat Swiss cheese -- divided 4 ways
2 large egg whites
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2/3 cup unseasoned dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 lemon wedgesRecipe
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a baking rack with cooking spray, then place the rack on a baking sheet and set aside. Butterfly each piece of chicken by slicing into the breast horizontally so you can open it like a book. Lay one quarter of the ham and cheese on one side of each breast, leaving 1/2 inch at edge uncovered, then close each piece. In a medium bowl, combine egg whites, buttermilk and mustard and blend until creamy.
In a shallow bowl, combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Gently dip each piece of chicken in the crumb mixture, then into the egg white mixture, then again in the crumb mixture. Set on baking rack. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until crisp and lightly browned, and chicken is no longer pink inside. Serves 4.
