The filling preparations are the same for both.

One at a time, place the chicken inbetween 2 pieces of clingfilm and bash / flatten with a rolling pin or meat tenderiser so they're a quarter inch thick

Fold the short sides over the filling, then the long sides on top.

Secure with 1 or 2 toothpicks to keep the filling from dropping out

You already have a bowl of flour ready.

Make sure the bits that are folded in are covered and packed well with crumb as this keeps the filling from seeping out

Place each piece of chicken on a greased baking tray and cover with foil.

Bake for 45 minutes, then another 15 minutes or so uncovered to give them a good colour

I sometimes change the chives in the cheese filling for diced ham, yummy!
