This is a yummy dinner, with a little "wow" value, but so simple to make.
First, you are going to need to set up some "dipping stations" with three small dishes.
In the first, you will beat together
2 eggs and 1/3 cup of milk.
In the next bowl, you will add
1/2 cup of flour and in the third bowl, you will combine
1 1/2 c dry bread crumbs, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1 1/2 tsp oregano, 1 tsp dry thyme leaves and 1/3 c parmesan cheese.
To make dry bread crumbs, just pop a couple slices of bread in the toaster, and toast. let the slices of toast cool, then tear into pieces, and give a buzz in a food processor. Instant bread crumbs. If you need fresh crumbs, skip the toasting step.
Now, you need one package of the
thin-sliced, boneless chicken breasts. Depending on how many slices are in your package, that will determine how much of the other ingredients you need. I had 6 slices, so I need 6 slices of
ham, 6 sticks of
swiss cheese (about 1/2 inch thick, 3 inches long), and
6 toothpicks.
Now take one slice of chicken, layer on one slice of ham, and a stick of cheese.
Roll them up, and secure by sticking a toothpick straight through it. Repeat with all.
Now you are going to start dipping. Take the first roll, and dip it into the egg wash, coating all over.
Second, dip it into the flour.
Next...go BACK to the egg wash, and dip again.
And last, roll it around in the crumb mixture, coating all over.
Place on a baking stone/sheet. Repeat with all.
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes. The cheese will ooze and get crispy in the edges, and the outside will be brown and crunchy.
Enjoy!

For two days we've been chasing a spider; a huge black, hairy, spotted, elusive spider with florescent green fangs! No one could kill him. He spent his time tantalizing us from - and I am NOT kidding - from my pillow. On the pillow, under the pillow, on the headboard, behind the lamp, back on the pillow... We would see him, get ready to squash him and he would see us and JUMP into hiding.
If I hadn't been so tired I might not have been too excited to sleep there last night, but I was tired and so I probably slept with the spider. Steve had moved the bed and everything but to no avail.
Today I saw in the reflection of the mirror the spider near my pillow again. I had time to plan my stealthy strike before he knew I was watching him.
Got him.
I really don't like jumping spiders, especially ones that are the size of a nickel.
