Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces egg whites
- 8 ounces grilled chicken breast
- 4 pieces whole wheat English muffins
- 4 pieces low-fat cheddar cheese slices
- olive oil cooking spray
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a grill pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Lightly spray the grill pan with olive oil cooking spray.
Season the egg whites with salt and pepper. Pour the egg whites into the pan, cooking until they are set and no longer runny, about 4-5 minutes.
Remove the cooked egg whites from the pan and cut them into four equal portions. Keep warm.
Slice the grilled chicken breast into thin strips and warm them up in the same pan for about 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Meanwhile, split the English muffins and lightly toast them in a toaster or on another dry skillet until golden brown.
Place one portion of egg whites on the bottom half of each English muffin.
Layer the sliced grilled chicken over the egg whites.
Place one slice of cheddar cheese on top of the chicken.
Cover with the top half of the English muffin.
Serve immediately, allowing the cheese to melt slightly and flavors to meld together.
