Steps:
- Pound chicken breasts to 1-inch thickness. Place a Swiss cheese and ham slice on each breast, within 1/2-inch of edge. Fold edges of chicken over filling and secure with toothpicks. Mix flour and paprika in a small bowl, and coat chicken pieces.
- Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until browned on all sides, about 3 minutes each side. Add lemon juice and chicken bouillon. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear, about 30 minutes.
- Remove toothpicks and transfer breast to a warm platter. Blend cornstarch and half-and-half in a small bowl. Whisk slowly into skillet, cooking and stirring until thickened, about 3 minutes. Pour over chicken and serve warm.

[email protected]Great recipe! I've made this several times now and it's always a hit. The chicken is always cooked perfectly and the ham and cheese filling is delicious. I like to serve it with a side of mashed potatoes and green beans.

[email protected]This was so easy to make and it turned out amazing! I used chicken breasts instead of thighs and it was still very juicy. The ham and cheese were a great combination and the breadcrumb coating was perfect. I will definitely be making this again.
