Savor a delightful twist on the classic melt featuring lightly breaded, grilled chicken paired with fresh spinach and reduced-fat cheese, all nestled between two hearty slices of whole-grain bread. This dish delivers a satisfying crunch with every bite and is perfectly balanced to fuel your day.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil (for grilling spray)
2 slices Whole Grain Bread
1 slice Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Pat the chicken breast dry and lightly season with salt and pepper if desired.
Coat the chicken breast evenly with the panko breadcrumbs, gently pressing them onto the surface.
Lightly spray the griddle or chicken with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Grill the breaded chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side until it's cooked through and has a crispy, golden crust.
While the chicken is grilling, toast the whole grain bread slices on the grill or in a toaster until lightly crisp.
Assemble the melt by placing the grilled chicken on one slice of toasted bread, topping it with fresh spinach and the reduced-fat cheddar cheese.
Place the other slice of toasted bread on top, then return the assembled sandwich to the grill for 1-2 minutes to help the cheese melt slightly.
Remove from the grill, slice in half if desired, and enjoy your crispy grilled chicken and spinach melt.
