Directions

1. Mix together Flour, Smoked Paprika, Salt and Pepper in a bowl

2. Halve mini potatoes, (don't season)

3. Pound Chicken breast to a thin cutlet

4. Place as much Cheese and Ham slices as you want on each breast. Roll up and secure with tooth picks

5. Take out a medium/large stainless steel saute pan and melt butte. Once butter starts to brown, add chicken roll ups, saute for 2min spooning butter over chicken. Add wine and boullion cube. Mix

6. Add potatoes to the center of the pan and the bunch of Lemon Thyme on top. Cover and simmer for 30min. Sauce will start to thicken. After 20min, spoon gravy over chicken and let finish cooking.
