Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breast
• 4 slices Deli ham
• 4 slices Swiss cheese
• 4 slices Sandwich bread
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 leaves Lettuce
• 1 small Tomato

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until well combined.

Step 4

Butter one side of each slice of sandwich bread.

Step 5

Spread the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard mixture on the unbuttered side of two bread slices.

Step 6

Place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of the mayonnaise spread, followed by one cooked chicken breast, 2 slices of ham, 1 leaf of lettuce, and a slice of tomato. Top with another slice of Swiss cheese.

Step 7

Place the remaining bread slices on top, buttered side facing out.

Step 8

Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches on the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing down gently, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

Step 9

Remove the sandwiches from the heat and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Ham and Cheese Chicken Sandwich!
