Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ⅓ cup milk
• 2 eggs, beaten
• ½ cup sour cream
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ¼ cup olive oil
• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• ¼ cup white wine

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Flatten chicken breasts without breaking through meat. Roll each ham slice in a cheese slice, then roll up in chicken breasts. In a shallow dish or bowl season flour with salt, pepper and paprika. In a separate dish or bowl beat together eggs and milk. Dip chicken rolls in seasoned flour, then egg mixture, then bread crumbs. Heat oil in a large skillet and fry chicken in hot oil until golden brown. Set aside.

Step 3

To Make Sauce: In a large bowl combine the soup, mushrooms, garlic powder, curry powder, wine and sour cream. Mix all together. Place browned chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Pour sauce mixture over chicken and bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley sprigs.
