ITALIAN CHICKEN ROLL-UPS

Because I have a busy schedule, I like to keep a batch of these tender chicken rolls in the freezer. Coated with golden crumbs, they seem fancy enough for company. I've substituted mozzarella cheese for the provolone and pastrami for the ham with equally delicious results. -Barbara Wobser, Sandusky, Ohio
