Asparagus Swiss Chicken Roulade

4 pounded out chicken breasts 1/8 in. thick
12 asparagus spears blanched
8 pieces of swiss cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400

1. Take the pounded out chicken and place 2 pieces of cheese on and 3 asparagus spears and roll up like a burrito but it will not fully enclose. Its okay! Take a few toothpicks and poke it along seam like a stitch to keep close. Salt and pepper the outsides of your roulades.
2. Turn stove on medium high and add 3T. olive oil in and when hot enough (where oil moves freely) add the chicken in, seam side down. Brown and turn over and try to brown chicken best you can. If your fry pan is oven safe put in oven or place on foil lined cookie sheet and place in oven for 10 minutes so chicken is full cooked. Serve and enjoy. The cheese will be gooey everywhere but if you let it rest for 5 minutes it will minimize loss.
