Slice the chicken breasts in half as to butterfly it and open it flat. Cover with plastic wrap and using a kitchen mallet or rolling pin, beat the chicken flat to about 1/4 inch thick.
Cut Swiss cheese slices in half. Place one slice of ham on the open chicken breast and then 3 half slices of cheese. Repeat.
Roll the chicken breast closed around the ham and cheese and pin closed with toothpicks. Set in fridge to chill while you continue.
In one bowl whisk the eggs.
In another bowl, fill with the panko crumbs.
In a final bowl add the spices, flour and cornstarch.
Dredge the chicken breast in the flour mixture first, then the egg wash and lastly the panko crumbs.
Make sure the chicken is fully breaded and place in air fryer basket. Spray with oil.
Cook on 370 for 9 minutes, flip and cook for 9 more minutes.
While cooking, mix together the Dijon, sour cream and minced garlic for the Dijon aioli.
Garnish with parsley and serve.

If you can’t find pre-sliced Swiss cheese, you can buy a block of cheese and slice it yourself. Just make sure the slices are thin.
You can use any type of deli ham for this recipe. I like to use honey ham, but you can use whatever you have on hand.
If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake this recipe in the oven. Just preheat the oven to 400 degrees and bake for 18-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
