Cooking instruction summary:

Pre-heat oven into 180C. Gently pound the chicken breast into 1/4 thickness using a meat mallet. Season the chicken meat - sprinkle salt and ground pepper on both sides. Place 1 ham and 2 cheese sticks on top of each breast (but I prefer putting on another 2 cheese sticks! i love cheese!) Roll up each breast an secure with a toothpick. Dredge in flour. Then brush with beaten eggs. Then finally roll in bread crumbs mixture. Brush the baking pan with olive oil, then place the chicken rolls. Bake for about 20 minutes. Then layer each rolls with butter cubes. Let the butter melts on its top, the roll will absorb its flavor and will give a really nice smell. Bake for another 15 minutes. You may serve this your favorite sauce.

Food Joke

A young couple got married. When the wife prepared to bake a ham to celebrate their first Thanksgiving, she carefully cut off each end before placing it in the pan.Her husband asked her why she did that and she replied, "I don`t know - it`s what my mother always did. But I can ask her."She called Mom, who responded, "I always saw your Grandma do it, so I did the same."They decided to check further, so the young woman called Grandma, who explained, "It was the only way I could get it to fit into my pan."
