Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking pan with cooking spray.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add oil, garlic, and onion. Cook and stir until tender, 1 to 3 minutes. Add ham and spinach leaves and stir until wilted, about 1 minute. Chop slightly in the skillet. Remove from heat and stir in cream cheese until melted and mixture has cooled a bit. Add Swiss cheese and set filling aside.
• Cut each chicken breast to 1/2 inch thickness and place in a bowl. Pour Italian dressing over chicken. Place 1 chicken breast on a cutting board and pound thinner. Add about 1/4 of the filling and fold chicken over to form a packet. Seal using toothpicks and place in the prepared baking pan. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts and filling.
• Combine crushed crackers and Cheddar cheese together in a bowl. Cover filled chicken breasts with cracker mixture, mashing them into the breasts.

• Place a baking sheet on the middle oven rack; preheat to 200˚ F. Place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or heavy skillet until 1/4 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
• Put 1 cup flour on a plate. Beat the eggs in shallow bowl. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, then add the vegetable oil. Coat 2 chicken breasts in the flour, then dip in the beaten eggs. Carefully add to the skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side (reduce the heat slightly if the chicken is browning too quickly). Remove the chicken to the hot pan in the oven. Repeat with the remaining 2 chicken breasts.
• Discard the oil and wipe out the skillet. Add the butter and melt over medium-high heat. Whisk in the remaining 1/4 cup flour; cook, whisking, until the mixture is bubbling but not browning, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the milk, then the chicken broth until smooth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the spinach and Parmesan and cook until heated through and well combined, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and nutmeg; season with salt and pepper. Serve over the chicken.
