Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen Comforting chicken and rice is even more delicious when salty, savory ham and gooey cheese are added to the mix.

Ingredients

1 tbsp. whole-grain mustard Black pepper 2 oz. Gruyère 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 8 large thin slices deli ham 1 tbsp. olive oil 2 c. instant rice 1 c. frozen peas 1/4 c. Chopped chives

Instructions

Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick foil. In a small bowl, combine the mustard and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; stir in the cheese. Pound the thickest part of the chicken so it is 1/2-inch thick. Lay 2 ham slices horizontally and slightly overlapping on your work surface. Spoon 1/4 of the cheese mixture onto the middle and top with a chicken breast (top-side down). Wrap the ham slices around the chicken. Repeat with the remaining pieces of chicken. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken (seam-side down first) until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken, seam-side down, to the prepared baking sheet and roast until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the rice according to package directions. Fold in the peas, then the chives. Serve with the chicken.
