Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Flatten each chicken breast to about 1/4 inch thickness.

- In a shallow bowl, mix flour with 1 teaspoon salt and pepper.
- In another bowl, mix breadcrumbs and melted butter.

Notes
For a more golden finish, broil the chicken rolls for 2-3 minutes after baking.
