Time to prep/cook: 20 min/25min
Servings 2
Ingredients:
- 2 chicken tenderloins
- 2 slices of very thin ham (I used deli sandwich meat)
- Cheese (I used 1 prepackaged slice of pepperjack cheese)
- Flour for coating
- 2 eggs for coating
- 3/4 cup of breadcrumbs for coating
- 1 tsp thyme
- 2 tbsp of olive oil
- 1 tbsp of minced garlic in olive oil
- 1/8 cup of diced onions
- 1/3 zucchini (long dices)
- 1/3 yellow summer squash (long dices)
- 1/8 cup of mushrooms
- 1 tsp crushed almonds for garnish
- Slit the tenderloins 3/4 of the way through and open them flat
- Place a slice of ham across the open chicken, trimming it if necessary so that the ham does not hang over the edge
- add thin strips of cheese over the meat (I used about 1/2 the prepackaged slice per chicken)
- Refold the chickens and make sure the ham and cheese are neatly tucked away inside the chicken
- Place the flour in a small bowl, the beaten eggs into a second bowl, and the breadcrumbs and thyme into a third bowl
- Coat each stuffed breast in the flour, then in egg, and finally in breadcrumbs (Shake off excess or clumps)
- Pour oil and garlic in a pan and heat on medium
- Once hot, gently slide in the coated breasts
- Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes per side (turn carefully with a spatula)
- Drain on kitchen paper while preparing side vegetables to soak up excess grease
- Take the vegetables and throw them in the pan where you cooked the chicken this way they fry in the same oil and the remaining garlic flavor/crumbs help flavor your vegetables
- Cook the vegetables for about 5-10 minutes until done
- Serve warm and, as always, ENJOY!
