  3. In a small bowl combine the chicken broth, lemon juice, Dijon mustard and 1 teaspoon of the reserved flour, whisk until smooth.

  4. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Melt the butter and add 1 teaspoon of the olive oil and half of the chicken.

  5. Cook 2 minutes on each side, until slightly golden, then transfer to a dish.

  6. Add remaining ½ teaspoon olive oil and remaining chicken and cook 2 minutes on each side.

  7. Set aside on a dish with the other pieces of chicken.

  8. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the chicken broth mixture. Whisk scraping up any bits stuck to the pan then simmer 2 minutes to reduce slightly.

  9. Return the chicken to the skillet, top each piece with a slice of ham and a slice of swiss, cover the skillet and simmer medium-low for 3 to 4 minutes until the cheese melts.

  10. To serve use a spatula and transfer the chicken to each dish, spoon the remaining sauce over each piece.
