Ingredients
Instructions
Heat half of the oil in a pan over high heat. Cut the chicken into thin slices lengthwise and season with salt and pepper.
Once heated, add the chicken and brown on all sides. This will take 3-4 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, cut the zucchini into thin slices lengthwise. Separately, heat the rest of the oil in a large pan and spread it out.
Once heated, add the zucchini slices and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes per side.
Place a chicken strip and diced cheese on each zucchini slice.
Roll up and skewer so that it does not fall apart.
Return to the pan where you cooked the zucchini and cover. Cook over medium heat for a few minutes until the cheese melts.
If you wish, you can use the oven or air fryer at 356 °F (180 °C) for 5-6 minutes or the microwave for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts.
