Ingredients




4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, crushed
4 slices Swiss cheese
4 slices cooked ham
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 teaspoon paprika
8 slices bacon

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 350° F.  Grease baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Pound chicken breasts to 1/4 inch thickness. 2 Sprinkle each piece of chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. 3 Spread each breast with garlic then place 1 cheese slice and 1 ham slice on top of each. 4 Roll up each breast and wrap chicken with 1-2 slices of bacon.  Bacon will keep chicken from unraveling. 5 Place in baking dish sprinkle with parsley and paprika then bake for approximately 30 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink. 6 Broil on high for approximately 3-5 minutes until bacon is browned, and Voila!
