Ingredients:
- 4 boneless chicken breasts
- 12 slices of Lomo
- 120g of Comté cheese
- 1 egg
- 80g of breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C.
- Cut your chicken breasts in half lengthwise, cover them with plastic wrap and pound them until they are thin and evenly layered. Remove the plastic wrap and season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Place 3 slices of Lomo on top of each chicken breast half, then add a slice of Comté in the center.
- Carefully roll the chicken around the Lomo and cheese, tucking the ends to ensure that the filling stays inside. Secure the roll with toothpicks if necessary.
- Whisk the egg in a bowl and add some salt and pepper to taste. Dip each chicken roll in the egg, then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing firmly to ensure that the breadcrumbs stick.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken rolls and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- Transfer the chicken rolls to a baking dish and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Remove the toothpicks and cut into slices. Serve hot and enjoy!
