Pickle Ham and Swiss Chicken Roll Ups (Cuban Chicken)

Step 1

Place chicken in a shallow bowl and cover with pickle juice (enough to cover completely). Marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours.

Step 2

After 8 hours, drain and dry the chicken completely on paper towels; discard marinade.

Step 3

Preheat oven to 425F. Spray a baking sheet with oil.

Step 4

Spread 1 teaspoon of mustard over each piece of chicken. Layer the ham on top, then the Swiss cheese and pickles along the center and roll.

Step 5

Place egg in a medium bowl. In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs and panko. Dip chicken in the egg wash, then into the breadcrumb mixture and shake off excess.

Step 6

Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spray the top generously with oil. Bake 25 minutes, until golden outside and cooked through.

Step 7

Follow steps 1-5.

Step 8

Preheat the air fryer to 400F. Transfer to the air fryer basket in two batches until golden outside and cooked through in the center, about 12 minutes, turning half way.
