Ingredients
- 4 slices Gluten-Free Bread
- 2 pieces Chicken Breast
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 4 slices Provolone Cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 leaves Lettuce
- 1 medium, sliced Tomato
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the chicken breasts. Place them between two sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub this mixture all over the chicken breasts.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
Step 4
Butter one side of each slice of gluten-free bread.
Step 5
To assemble the sandwiches, place a slice of provolone cheese on the unbuttered side of two bread slices. Top with a chicken breast piece, a lettuce leaf, a couple of slices of tomato, and another slice of cheese. Finally, top with the remaining bread slices, buttered side facing out.
Step 6
Wipe out the skillet used for the chicken or use a clean skillet. Heat it over medium heat.
Step 7
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Step 8
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and allow to cool slightly before slicing in half. Serve immediately.
