Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pound the chicken breasts to about ¼ inch thick.
Layer each breast with a slice of chicken and Swiss cheese, then roll tightly and secure with toothpicks.
Dredge each roll in seasoned flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with breadcrumbs.
In a skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat; sear each roll until golden brown (2–3 minutes per side).
Transfer to a baking dish and bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
For the sauce, melt butter in a saucepan, whisk in flour, milk, Dijon mustard, and Parmesan cheese until creamy.
Serve sliced rolls drizzled with sauce; garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
