Ingredients

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray or small sheet pan with foil for easy cleanup.
2. Wrap each chicken cube with a strip of ham. Place a small square of Swiss cheese on top or tuck it into the ham, then secure the bite with a toothpick.
3. Arrange the prepared bites on the baking tray, leaving a little space between each piece to allow for even cooking and browning.
4. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked, the edges of the ham are lightly crisp, and the cheese is melted and beginning to turn golden.
5. Remove from the oven and let the bites rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the cheese to set slightly and makes the toothpicks easier to handle.

Serve warm and enjoy these easy, crowd-pleasing appetisers fresh from the oven.
