Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 slices deli ham
  • 8 slices deli turkey
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish.
  2. In a bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Butterfly the chicken breasts by cutting them horizontally, but not all the way through, so that they can be opened like a book.
  4. Place a slice of ham and a slice of turkey on each chicken breast.
  5. Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the ham and turkey slices.
  6. Roll up each chicken breast tightly, tucking in the filling as you go.
  7. Secure the rollups with toothpicks, if needed.
  8. In a shallow dish, combine the bread crumbs and melted butter.
  9. Coat each chicken rollup with the bread crumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  10. Place the rollups in the greased baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the rollups are golden and crispy.
  11. Remove the toothpicks before serving.
  12. Serve the Chicken and Cheese Rollups hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
