Ingredients
- 8 slices chicken breast
- 8 slices cooked ham
- 4.2 oz smoked scamorza cheese
- 2.5 oz gorgonzola (or creamy cheese to taste such as brie, crescenza, etc…)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 leaf sage
- 1 sprig marjoram
- to taste rosemary
- to taste pepper
- to taste extra virgin olive oil
- to taste salt
Tools
- 1 Meat Tenderizer
- 1 Cutting Board
- 1 Blender
- 1 Baking Dish
- 1 Oven
Steps
Let’s prepare the breading:
Put the breadcrumbs in a mixer, add the sage, marjoram, 2 or 3 rosemary needles (alternatively to fresh herbs, you can add 1 teaspoon of roast seasoning), a grind of pepper, and blend (you can also add parsley, thyme, curry, paprika, or whatever you prefer).
Pour the breadcrumbs with the herbs onto a plate and set aside.
Cut the scamorza cheese into 8 large pieces, also divide the gorgonzola (or soft cheese of your choice) into 8 parts.
On a cutting board, use a meat tenderizer to flatten the chicken slices.
Now we can prepare our roll-ups:
Fill the chicken slices by laying them out one at a time on a work surface, cover with a slice of ham, and place a piece of provola and a piece of gorgonzola on one side (you can also add a sage leaf), roll up the chicken slice starting from the side with the cheese filling to form the roll-ups, place it on a tray.
Proceed in the same way for all the chicken slices, fill them in the same way and form the roll-ups.
Now we can proceed to breading.
Turn on the oven to 356°F static (you can also cook them in an electric fryer).
Grease a baking dish with some oil.
Put a little oil in a deep plate and roll each roll-up in the oil to coat it completely, then pass it through the seasoned breadcrumbs prepared earlier to bread it completely.
Place the roll-up in the baking dish, trying to position the seam side down.
Bread all the roll-ups in the same way and arrange them in the pan.
Spray with some oil.
Beat the egg with a pinch of salt with a fork.
With the help of a tablespoon, sprinkle each roll-up with the egg.
Bake in the hot oven at 356°F for about 20 minutes (they should brown).
Baked chicken roll-ups are ready to be enjoyed… Bon appétit.
You can accompany these tasty roll-ups with savory peas in a pan, sautéed fresh mushrooms, perfect baked potatoes, potatoes cooked in a pan with wine or with a simple salad.
