Ingredients

  • 8 thin chicken cutlets (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons honey mustard
  • 4 slices deli ham (about 4 ounces total), halved lengthwise
  • 12 thin slices Swiss cheese (about 4 ounces total), halved lengthwise into 24 strips

Preparation

Step 1

1.Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place cutlets on work surface, and season with salt and pepper.
2.Spread cutlets with mustard; layer with 1 slice of ham and 2 strips of cheese. Starting at a short end, roll up cutlets; place, seam side down, on prepared baking sheet. Top each cutlet with 1 piece of remaining cheese; broil until browned and chicken is opaque throughout, 6 to 10 minutes.
3.Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring peas, butter, and 1 cup water to a boil. Remove from heat, and stir in couscous. Cover and let stand 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; fluff with a fork. Serve couscous with roll-ups.
