Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 Whole grain bagels
- 1 medium Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Baby spinach
- 1 medium Tomato
- 0.5 medium Avocado
- 0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium heat.
Slice the chicken breast in half horizontally to create thin fillets.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, dried oregano, and black pepper.
Brush the mixture over both sides of the chicken.
Grill the chicken fillets for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is cooking, slice the tomato and avocado into thin slices.
In another small bowl, combine Greek yogurt and Dijon mustard to create a creamy spread.
Toast the whole grain bagels lightly.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove from heat and let it rest for a minute.
Assemble the sandwiches by spreading the yogurt-mustard mix on each bagel half.
Layer baby spinach and sliced tomato on the bottom half of each bagel.
Place the grilled chicken over the vegetables, followed by avocado slices.
Top with the other bagel half and serve immediately. Enjoy your heart-healthy meal!
