Steps

1Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F (about 176 degrees C).
2Put the chicken breasts between two slices of wax paper and flatten with a rolling pin or meat mallet until they are about a quarter of an inch thick.
3Place a slice of ham and a slice of cheddar on each chicken breast.
4Roll the chicken breast as tightly as possible. If necessary, secure the rolls with toothpicks or small skewers.Beat an egg in a shallow baking dish. Arrange two other "stations" using foil or other dishes, one for the flour and another for the dried herbs and breadcrumbs. Cover the rolled chicken breasts in flour, then dip them into the egg mixture. Finally, press them into the mixture of dried herbs and breadcrumbs until they are covered on all sides.
5Place the chicken in an oiled (or buttered) baking dish and bake for about 30 minutes.
