And gosh, did it turn out pretty! We served it with some lemon roasted asparagus and the extra Parmesan Cream sauce was SO GOOD over some leftover mashed potatoes.

For the Chicken
2 Chicken Breast, halved and pounded thin (So 4 total pieces of meat)
leftover baked ham or your favorite good quality ham deli meat
Swiss Cheese
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp Lawry's seasoning salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 egg
2 TBSP milk
1 cup Bread Crumbs
2 TBSP Vegetable oil
2 TBSP butter
For the Parmesan Cream Sauce
2 TBSP butter
2 TBSP all purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 chicken flavored Bouillon cube, crushed
1 TBSP Dijon mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup grated Parmesan (the stuff in the green can)

Slice both chicken breast in half lengthwise, making 4 thinner cutlets. Put each cutlet inside a freezer bag and flatten with a meat pounder or rolling pin until they are approximately 1/4" thick. Top each...
