Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a small baking dish place egg and beat lightly. In a separate bowl, gently mix melted butter with breadcrumbs until breadcrumbs are moist.
On a plastic cutting board or parchment, assemble chicken. Lay chicken breast flat and top with one slice of cheese and two slices of ham on top. Roll chicken from top to bottom and secure with toothpicks. You should need no more than 3 or 4.
Gently dip the chicken roll into beaten egg and then into the breadcrumb mixture, coating generously. Place into ungreased baking dish. Repeat until all are completed.
