Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 heaping tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • zest and juice from 1/2 a lemon
  • 2 chicken breasts trimmed and flattened
  • 2 slices of provolone
  • 4 slices thin sliced ham
  • 8 asparagus spears trimmed
  • 1/2 cup bread crumbs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking dish with parchment paper, and if available, place an oven-safe rack on top to allow air circulation. Set aside.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Italian seasoning, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth.
  • Trim the chicken breasts and pound them to an even thickness. Lay one breast flat, and place two slices of ham, a slice of provolone cheese, and four asparagus spears in the center. Starting at the short end, roll the chicken tightly around the filling.
  • Dip each chicken roll into the mayo mixture, ensuring all sides are evenly coated while keeping the roll tight. Immediately roll in breadcrumbs for a crunchy coating.
  • Arrange the chicken rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking dish. Mist lightly with cooking spray. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Let the rolls rest for a few minutes before serving. Pair with your favorite sides for a complete meal!

Notes

Want a darker top? Turn on the broiler after the chicken is done cooking for 1 to 2 minutes.
