Ingredients BREADCRUMBS ▢ Panko breadcrumbs - 1/2 cup for Super Easy or 1 cup for Quick Dredge ▢Oil spray CHICKEN ▢ 2 small chicken breasts, around 6-7oz/180-210g each ▢ Salt and pepper ▢ 4 slices swiss cheese (Note 1) ▢ 4 to 6 slices of ham, about 2.5oz/75g (Note 2) METHOD 1: SUPER EASY ▢ 3 tbsp mayonnaise ▢ 1 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard METHOD 2: QUICK DREDGE ▢ 1 egg ▢ 2 tsp plain flour DIJON CREAM SAUCE (MAKES 1 CUP) ▢ 1 1/2 tbsp butter ▢ 1 1/2 tbsp flour ▢ 1 1/4 cups milk (Note 3) ▢ 2 tbsp Dijon mustard ▢ 3 tbsp parmesan cheese, finely grated Instructions Preheat oven to 200C/390F (standard) or 180C/350F (fan). Spread panko breadcrumbs on a baking tray and spray with oil. Bake for 3 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove and scrape into bowl straight away. Cut a pocket into each chicken breast, as per the photo below. Fold the cheese in half and place 2 pieces inside each pocket. Do the same with the ham. Close the pocket, seal with 2 toothpicks. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. SUPER EASY METHOD Mix the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Spread onto the top and sides of the chicken (not underside). Sprinkle panko over the chicken, using your other hand to press the breadcrumbs onto the side of the chicken. Spray with oil. QUICK DREDGE METHOD Whisk egg and flour. Dip chicken into egg mixture, then into the panko breadcrumbs. Transfer to a tray, spray with oil. BAKING Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and just cooked through. Remove toothpicks, serve with the Dijon Cream Sauce. DIJON CREAM SAUCE Melt butter over medium heat in a small saucepan. Add flour and cook for 1 minute. Add half the milk and whisk until the flour mixture is blended in. Add remaining milk, mustard, and cheese. Cook for 3 minutes, whisking constantly until thickened. It will thicken as it cools. Remove from heat,  add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with chicken. Recipe Notes: 1. Swiss cheese (or macadam sold at supermarket delis in Australia) is best for this recipe because it melts but holds its shape quite well. If you substitute with gruyere, cheddar, mozzarella, or any other melting cheese, more cheese will ooze out. But if you seal with extra toothpicks, you can use any cheese you want! 2. I used small ham rounds so I needed 2 for each to cover the surface inside the chicken. 3. Preferably full-fat milk but low fat is also ok. 4. Make Ahead: Use the Dredge Method and then refrigerate for up to 24 hours (probably ok longer, I just haven't tried) or freeze uncooked. Keep leftover breadcrumbs and touch up if required before baking. Thaw then cook per recipe. 5.

This show is about what I eat and what my family eats. Not all our family members are Diabetic. So I make food for both categories. You won't see me making any Unhealthy cookies, cakes, or candy. I make what we think is healthy food. For us & our guests, I may have something of a sugar nature like soda pop coca-cola, or Pepsi. But that is not something I drink. This is a show of info and entertainment. It is not intended to cure diabetes, for that contact distension or a doctor. I am not a chef, Doctor, expert, or distension. I am just a cook making food for my family and me. Diabetes is caused by a beta cell in the beta-hemoglobin gene. Diabetes is a disease. That may be reversed by eating better and exercising. Beta cells in type 1 diabetes In type 1 diabetes, beta cells die from a misguided attack by the body's immune system How and why that happens is not clear, but the results of a study published in early 2011 suggest that these pancreatic cells become stressed at the earliest stages of the disease process.
