When I was growing up, it was super rear for us to go out to eat, even more rear for us to be patrons at a sit-down restaurant. As a kid the most fancy restaurant we went to was Sizzler. My favorite dish was the Malibu Chicken...That is other then mom's salad bar. I always loved stealing bites from mom's salad bar plate. I even tried ordering a salad bar once and assembling it the way she did, but I promise it didn't taste nearly as good as mom's! Just one of those things, right!
6 boneless skinless chicken breasts (pound 'em thin)
6 slices of cooked ham
6 slices of swiss cheese
*(sometimes I have to double the items for the breading on the chicken, just depends on how big you chicken pieces are)
1 egg
1/4 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
3/4 cup fine dry breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon mustard
1/4 cup mayonnaise
Stir egg and 1 tablespoon water together with a fork. Combine flour, salt, and pepper; coat each chicken piece. I set up an assembly line, a large pyrex dish with the flour-coated chicken, next - a shallow dish with the egg mixture, next a shallow dish with the breadcrumbs. Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Now work you way down the assembly line: take a piece of floured-chicken, and dip in egg mixture (coating both sides), then move it into the bread crumbs (coating both sides), and place in your hot skillet. Brown both sides. Place browned chicken onto a cookie sheet, top each piece with a slice of ham and slice of cheese. Bake a 350 degrees, until the cheese melts.
For the dipping sauce combine mustard and mayonnaise.
