Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Cooked chicken breast
- 150 grams Jarlsberg cheese
- 8 slices Sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 50 grams Fresh spinach leaves
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Shred the cooked chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces using a fork or your hands. Season with salt and black pepper.
Grate the Jarlsberg cheese and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise until well combined.
Spread a thin layer of the Dijon-mayo mixture on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Assemble the sandwiches by layering shredded chicken, grated Jarlsberg cheese, and fresh spinach leaves onto four slices of bread (on the side spread with the Dijon-mayo mixture). Top with the remaining slices of bread, spread side down.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Spread a small amount of butter on the outside of each sandwich (both the top and bottom slices).
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly before slicing in half. Serve warm with your favorite side salad or soup.
