4 chicken breasts 
375 g  ham, shaved 
250 g  swiss cheese, thin sliced 
1 cups  plain flour 
3 eggs 
1 cups  milk 
2 cups  breadcrumbs, fresh 
 
1Prep: Trim chicken breasts and pound with tenderising mallet between sheets of plastic wrap until very thin but with no holes.
2Lay the chicken breasts out on a flat surface, and top each one with equal portions of ham and Swiss cheese. Roll the breasts, tucking in the ends, as tight as possible.
3Dredge the breasts in flour. Whisk together the eggs and milk to form egg wash. Dip the floured breasts in the egg wash and then roll in the bread crumbs.
4Arrange the rolled breast in a buttered baking dish and place a small knob of butter on the top of each breast. Cover and freeze.
5Then finish in oven at 180°C for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and serve immediately topped with supreme sauce.
