Method
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Gather three separate bowls: one for flour, another for beaten eggs, and a third for panko breadcrumbs.
Coat each chicken breast in flour, dip into eggs, and then coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs.
Heat about ¼ inch of oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry the breaded chicken until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
Transfer the chicken to the baking tray, layer with ham, and top with Swiss cheese.
Bake for about 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Drizzle the honey mustard sauce over the chicken just before serving.
