Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breasts sliced in half lengthwise (or 4 thin-sliced breasts)
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder for the flour
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder for the flour
- 2 large eggs whisked with a splash of water
- 1 cup Italian-style panko breadcrumbs
- oil about 1/2 inch in the skillet, for frying
- 8 slices deli ham
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup mayonnaise for the sauce
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard for the sauce
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard for the sauce
- 4 teaspoons honey for the sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder for the sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder for the sauce
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise.
- Stir the flour, salt, pepper, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder and 1/4 teaspoon onion powder together in a shallow bowl. Whisk the eggs with a splash of water in a second bowl. Put the panko in a third bowl.
- Coat each piece of chicken in the flour and shake off the excess, dip it in the egg and let the excess drip off, then press it into the panko so the crumbs stick.
- Heat about 1/2 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium heat to 350°F. Fry the chicken in batches just until golden brown on both sides; it does not need to cook through yet. Drain briefly on paper towels, then set on a wire rack over a sheet tray.
- Move the chicken to a baking dish. Top each piece with 2 slices of ham and 1 1/2 slices of Swiss cheese. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F.
- While the chicken bakes, whisk the mayonnaise, Dijon, yellow mustard, honey, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and 1/2 teaspoon onion powder together.
- Serve the chicken right away with the sauce for dipping.
Notes
Copycat-style; Sizzler does not publish its recipe. Refrigerate chicken and sauce separately within 2 hours; eat within 3 to 4 days; reheat chicken to 165°F in the oven.
