Ingredients:

4 boneless skinless chicken
1 breast halves
4 ham slices, extra lean
4 swiss cheese slices -- very
1 thin
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 dash salt
1/4 tsp black pepper -- fresh
1 ground
1/4 tsp lemon pepper -- optional
1/2 cup soft bread crumbs
1 egg
2 1/2 tbsp canola oil -- or peanut

Instructions:

1. Skin the chicken breasts and pound to 1/4 inch between sheets of
waxed paper. 2. Lay one slice of fully cooked thin ham on chicken,
then one slice of very thin Swiss cheese. Roll up very carefully;
secure with wet toothpicks or tie twine around tightly. Unwaxed
dental floss makes a good tie. 3. Mix the flour, pepper, salt and
lemon-pepper (optional). Dust this over the chicken rolls lightly.
Dip one at a time into the beaten egg. Roll in the bread crumbs. 4.
Heat the oil in a 9 or 10-inch heavy skillet with lid. Place the
chicken rolls into hot oil, seam side down. Saute about 10 minutes,
turning carefully once or twice. 5. Add 2 tablespoons of water or
chicken broth, cover immediately, and turn heat to simmer. Simmer for
10-15 minutes. Remove from pan, let stand 3-4 minutes, then carefully
remove the toothpicks or twine. Serve warm.

Chicken is ideal
for weight loss
and dieting

Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.

Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
