Preparation Steps
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spray a sheet pan with olive oil spray.
Microwave broccoli with 1 tablespoon water for 1 minute until soft. Drain and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
In a small bowl, beat egg with water. In a separate bowl, place breadcrumbs.
If chicken isn't thin enough, pound it to 1/4 inch thickness. Season both sides with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Place a slice of cheddar in the center of each chicken cutlet, top with broccoli.
Roll up the chicken, securing with toothpicks to cover the filling completely.
Dip each roll into the egg wash, then coat with breadcrumbs. Transfer to the sheet pan.
Spray the tops with olive oil and bake for approximately 25 minutes until cooked through.
