Steps
- 1
Butterfly chicken breasts and pound to 1/4-inch thickness.
- 2
Layer ham and Swiss cheese on each breast. Roll up tightly and secure with toothpicks.
- 3
Dredge in flour, dip in egg, coat in panko. Spray with oil.
- 4
Air fry at 375°F for 18-20 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and internal temp reaches 165°F.
- 5
Make sauce: melt butter, whisk in flour, add broth and cream, stir in mustard. Drizzle over chicken.
Tip: Pound the chicken evenly thin so it rolls without cracking. Secure with toothpicks and remove before serving. The cheese will ooze a bit — that's normal and delicious. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
Why Air Fry This?
- ⏱️Ready in 20 minutes vs ~36 in a conventional oven — no preheating needed.
- 🍖Circulating hot air renders fat and seals in juices for a crispier outside and tender inside.
- ⚡Uses significantly less energy than heating a full-size oven for a single batch.
