"These special chicken bundles are absolutely delicious," remarks Shawna McCutcheon of Homer City, Pennsylvania. "You can assemble them up to 8 hours in advance and keep them in the fridge. Then just place them on the grill shortly before dinner."

Ingredients

6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
6 slices Swiss cheese
6 thin slices deli ham
3 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs

Directions

Flatten the chicken to 1/4-in. thickness. Place a slice of cheese and ham on each to within 1/4 in. of edges. Fold in half; secure with toothpicks. Brush with oil and roll in bread crumbs.
Grill, covered, over medium-hot heat for 7-9 minutes on each side or until chicken is no longer pink. Remove toothpicks.
