Butterfly the chicken breasts by cutting them in half and opening them up. Place the chicken between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound until the chicken is about 1/2 an inch thick. Season the chicken with Tony's Spice N' Herbs Seasoning. Evenly distribute the Swiss cheese and ham on the chicken and roll the chicken up. Wrap the chicken in plastic wrap and place it in the freezer while you prepare the sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and garlic. Sauté until fragrant. Stir in the flour for 2 minutes, then add heavy cream and Dijon mustard and stir until thickened. Add in Parmesan cheese and season to taste with Tony's Spice N' Herbs. Heat 2 inches of oil to 325°F. Remove chicken from the freezer and dip it into a bowl of flour. Then, dip it into a bowl of eggs and finally into a bowl of Italian breadcrumbs. Fry in oil for 5 minutes. Turn the chicken over and fry for an additional 5 minutes. If the internal temperature is not up to 165°F, add the chicken to an oven at 325°F until the chicken reaches its internal 165°F temperature. Plate the chicken, slice it and top it with the cream sauce. Enjoy! About Tony Chachere's® Tony Chachere's® Famous Creole Cuisine is celebrating its 50th Anniversary!
