Ingredients

  • 600 g skinless chicken breasts
  • 100 g cooked ham slices
  • 100 g mozzarella, grated
  • 80 g plain flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 150 g panko breadcrumbs
  • 150 g mixed salad leaves
  • 500 ml vegetable oil for frying

Method

  1. 1

    Slice each chicken breast almost in half horizontally to make a pocket, without cutting all the way through.

  2. 2

    Tuck the ham and mozzarella inside each pocket and press closed.

  3. 3

    Dust the stuffed chicken in the plain flour, dip in the beaten eggs, then coat well in the panko breadcrumbs.

  4. 4

    Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan and fry the chicken for 5-6 minutes each side, until golden and cooked through with no pink remaining.

  5. 5

    Drain briefly on kitchen paper and serve with the mixed salad leaves.
