  3. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary evenly over each chicken breast.
  4. Top each chicken breast with 1 slice of ham (approx. 2 oz) and 3-4 slices of apple (about 1/2 a medium apple per breast).
  5. Roll up each chicken breast tightly and secure with toothpicks.
  6. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over the chicken rolls.
  7. Place chicken rolls in a baking dish.
  8. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
