Ingredients2 (4-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, visible fat removed, pounded to 1/2" thickness
Olive oil spray (propellant free)
Sea salt, to taste
Fresh ground black pepper, to taste
Garlic powder, to taste
2 ounces thinly sliced lean, nitrate-free ham
1 ounce thinly sliced all- natural reduced-fat Swiss cheese
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme leaves, or more to taste
InstructionsPreheat the oven to 350°F.
Lightly mist the chicken with olive oil spray on both sides. Sprinkle evenly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Place a medium ovenproof, nonstick skillet over high heat. When it's hot, lightly mist it with the spray and add the chicken. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown on the outside.
Remove the pan from the heat. Top each chicken breast with half of the ham and half of the cheese, making sure they do not hang over. Sprinkle each evenly with the thyme. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.

**Note** The first time I made this I didn't have any swiss cheese and substituted colby jack cheese. I also put the cheese between the 2 meats to help the ham stay on the chicken. The 2nd time I made it I used swiss cheese but cut the slice in half and placed half between the meats and the other half on top. Both versions were extremely delicious. :)
