Ingredients
UnitsScale
1 large focaccia loaf (store-bought or homemade)
2cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or sliced
1/2cup mayonnaise or aioli
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1cup arugula or baby spinach
1 tomato, sliced
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
4 slices provolone or mozzarella cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil for drizzling
Instructions
Cut the focaccia loaf in half horizontally to create a top and bottom piece.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Spread evenly on the inside of both bread halves.
Layer the bottom half with chicken, cheese slices, arugula, tomato, and red onion.
Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle a little olive oil if desired.
Place the top half of the focaccia on the sandwich and press down gently.
Cut into portions and serve immediately, or wrap and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
Notes
Grill or toast the sandwich for melted cheese and crispy texture.
Add roasted red peppers or pesto for extra flavor.
