Ingredients
- 8 Boneless chicken legs or slices of chicken breast
- 200 g of Ham
- 200 g of Mozzarella cheese
- 4 Onions
- Salt & pepper
- Rosemary
Breadcrumbs mixture
- Wheat flour
- 3 Eggs
- Breadcrumbs
- Parmesan cheese
- Parsley
- Salt & pepper
Instructions
#1 Using a meat beater, lightly beat the chicken legs to make them thinner and more even, then salt and pepper them on both sides.
Tip: If you use chicken breast, marinate it with a little olive oil, this will make the chicken softer.
#2 Lay the chicken on a flat base and place a piece of ham and a slice of mozzarella on it and roll the chicken onto itself to make a roll.
Do not exaggerate with the filling because otherwise the rolls may break or the cheese may leak out.
#3 Pour enough flour into one bowl. Prepare the breadcrumbs mixture with breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, parsley and salt and pepper in a second bowl. And beat the eggs in a third separate bowl.

#4 First dip the chicken in the flour, then in the eggs and at the end in the seasoned breadcrumbs, press a little so that the breadcrumbs will stick perfectly with the chicken.
#5 Prepare a baking tray with a bed of onions and lay down your breaded chicken rolls.
#6 Season with extra virgin olive oil and rosemary and bake your breaded rolls at 180°C for about 20-25 minutes.
In my recipe, I used cooked ham and mozzarella for the filling, but you can use speck or bacon, and also vegetables like spinach and soft cheese. As you prefer!
