Ingredients

8 thin ham slices
80 g Swiss or cheddar cheese, sliced into eight 2-in pieces

PREHEAT oven to 375F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.

WRAP a slice of ham around each piece of cheese. Make a horizontal slit about 2 1/2 in long and 1 1/2 deep in thickest side of chicken breast to form a pocket. Rub a scant tsp of Dijon inside pocket. Tuck in ham-wrapped cheese and 1 piece of butter. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
