Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece (approximately 8 ounces) Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 halves Whole grain bagel
- 0.5 whole Avocado
- 1 medium-sized Tomato
- 2 leaves Lettuce
- 1 tablespoon Low-sodium Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika on both sides.
Drizzle olive oil onto the preheated grill pan or skillet.
Place the chicken breast in the pan and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
While the chicken is cooking, halve and pit the avocado. Scoop out the flesh and mash it in a small bowl with the lemon juice to prevent browning.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.
Toast the bagel halves in a toaster or on a clean skillet until lightly browned.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly on the bottom half of each bagel.
Layer each bagel starting with lettuce, followed by slices of tomato, and chicken strips.
Spread low-sodium Dijon mustard on the top half of the bagel and place it on top of the sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium savory chicken bagel sandwich.
