Sage Chicken Cordon Bleu

Ingredients

6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
6 slices thinly sliced deli ham

1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
3/4 teaspoon dried sage leaves
1/3 cup dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
4 tablespoons butter, melted, divided

Directions

~Preheat oven at 350°.

~Flatten chicken to 1/8-in. thickness. Place a ham slice, a mozzarella cheese strip, 1 tablespoon tomato, and 1/8 tsp sage down the center of each chicken breast. Roll up and tuck in ends; secure with toothpicks.
