No reviews

Master this classic! Tender chicken stuffed with smoky turkey and melted Gruyère. The perfect crispy crust is achieved via our simple two-step breading station.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (pounded thin)
  • 4 slices deli smoked turkey (thinly sliced)
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese (or Gruyère)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
  • 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or Italian seasoning)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (or butter, plus extra for searing)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Chicken and Stuffing
  2. Step 2: Create the Breading Station
  3. Step 3: Sear the Rolls
  4. Step 4: Bake until Cooked Through

Notes

  • To store leftovers, wrap tightly and refrigerate for up to three days, or freeze the fully cooked rolls and thaw overnight before reheating.
  • Avoid the microwave when reheating; instead, bake the rolls at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes to fully melt the cheese while keeping the Panko crust perfectly crisp.
  • Pair this rich, cheesy dish with a light lemon-dressed green salad or simple roasted asparagus to beautifully cut through the richness of the chicken and cheese.
  • Chef's Tip: Use toothpicks to secure the rolled chicken and ensure the filling stays completely sealed before searing, preventing any cheesy leaks during baking.
