Chicken Florentine Grilled Cheese

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 2 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 teaspoons olive oil

1 small boneless skinless chicken breast

Kosher salt and freshly-cracked black pepper

2 slices sourdough bread (or bread of choice)

Butter, for spreading

3–4 slices Fontina cheese (or mozzarella/provolone if preferred)

2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped

1 handful fresh baby spinach

Instructions

  1. Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Cook for 6–8 minutes, turning once, until golden and fully cooked. Transfer to a cutting board, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.

  2. Prepare Bread: Butter one side of each bread slice generously. Place one slice, butter-side down, on a clean surface.

  3. Layer Ingredients: Add 1–2 slices of cheese, then top with sliced chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and remaining cheese. Cover with the second bread slice, butter-side up.

  4. Grill the Sandwich: Heat the pan again over medium heat. Place sandwich in the pan and cook 4–5 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is toasted and cheese has melted.

  5. Serve Warm: Remove from pan, slice diagonally, and enjoy immediately.
