How to Make Broccoli And Ham Stuffed Chicken Breasts

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Spray a 9x13 inch baking pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup bread crumbs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 1 tablespoon melted butter.
  5. Trim the thickest part of each of 8 chicken breasts to even out the thickness. Gently pound each breast to about 1/4 inch thickness using a meat mallet or the bottom of a heavy pan.
  6. Steam or microwave 2 cups broccoli florets until tender-crisp. Drain well and stir in 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 2 tablespoons cream of celery soup, salt, and pepper to taste.
  7. Place 1/4 cup of shredded ham and 2 tablespoons of the prepared broccoli mixture on one end of each chicken breast.
  8. Roll up each chicken breast tightly and secure with a toothpick if needed.
  9. Dip each rolled chicken breast into the egg mixture, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated.
  10. Arrange the chicken breasts seam-side down in the prepared baking pan.
  11. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bread crumbs are golden brown.
  12. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
