DIRECTIONS
Flatten the chicken to 1/2-in. thickness. Spread mustard on one side; sprinkle with paprika. Top with a ham slice. Roll up tightly; secure with toothpicks.
In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and pepper.
Brush chicken with mayonnaise; roll in crumb mixture. Place in a shallow 2-qt. microwave-safe dish; cover loosely. Microwave on high for 7 minutes. Turn the chicken; cook 7 minutes longer or until juices run clear. Remove toothpicks; set aside and keep warm.
In a 1-qt. microwave-safe dish, heat the butter on high for 30 seconds; stir in the flour until smooth. Cook, uncovered, on high for 30 seconds. Add milk and salt. Cook 3-4 minutes longer or until thickened. Stir in cheese until smooth. Add the wine or broth. Serve over chicken.

My teenage son is a picky eater...he loves to eat, but if it doesn't come in a wrapper with fries, he's hard to get to try new things. This recipe was a real hit! As for me, it literally took me 15 minutes to prep and within 30 minutes it was on the table. I did roll a slice of swiss cheese with the ham, and I also added about an extra 1/4 up swiss cheese when I made the sauce. The sauce was really delicious, especially with the white wine. My son asked me to make it again. A definitely "keeper".

I actually pulled two recipes for this dish off of allrecipes.com to make. I will have to say, this was was by far way superior to any other that I've ever tried in the past. Can you believe I even went so far as to pan fry them in peanut oil -- (copy cat recipes from a well known restaurant). This was simple, VERY tasty, easy to prepare... Next time I will use a LITTLE more swiss cheese on the inside because they inevitably leak a little. Sprinkling a little parmesan cheese on top before serving adds a nice little touch. I served this with some asparagus with dijon cheese sauce and an apple/cranberry tart for dessert. Was fabulous! ;)

I really like this recipe, though I change somethings about it it turned out great. I used regular mustard, and I did put baby swiss cheese on top of the ham. I pan fried with veg oil before putting the chicken into the oven at 350 or 35-40 mins. I WILL fix this again, it was that good.

I am not a swiss cheese fan, so I always use a high moisture mozarella cheese. I did not like the mayo taste that was so evident in this recipe. I know I will try this again...but will tinker with is, no mayo for me. Thanks anyways for the post.

Delicious! The sauce is reminiscent of a fondue sauce and the chicken turned out perfect! And the best part of all, it's all made in the microwave. My only complaint was that most of the bread crumbs came off of the chicken, but it was wonderful nonetheless!
