Photo: Grilled Fuji-n-Chick 'Wich Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 (4-ounce) raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast cutlet
- Dash each salt and black pepper
- 1/2 cup peeled and thinly sliced Fuji apple
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced onion
- 2 dashes ground sage
- 2 dashes garlic powder
- 2 slices light bread
- 1 wedge light spreadable Swiss cheese (recommended: The Laughing Cow Light)
- 1 teaspoon light whipped butter or light buttery spread, room temperature, divided
Directions
Bring a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat on the stove. Add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 4 minutes on one side.
Flip chicken in the skillet. Add apple, onion, sage, and garlic powder. Cook until the apple and onion have softened and the chicken is cooked through, about 4 minutes.
Meanwhile, lay bread slices flat and evenly spread the upward-facing sides with cheese.
Evenly top one slice with chicken and apple-onion mixture. Place the other bread slice on top with the cheese-covered side down. Press gently to seal. Set aside.
Remove the skillet from heat. Clean the skillet, if needed. Re-spray and return to medium heat on the stove.
Spread 1/2 teaspoon of butter on the upward-facing bread slice. Place the sandwich in the skillet with the buttered side down. Spread the remaining 12 teaspoon of butter on the upward-facing bread slice.
Cook the sandwich until hot and toasty, 1 to 2 minutes per side, flipping it gently.
Allow it to cool slightly. Then cut it in half, if you like, or just bite right in! Yummm . . .

Tried this for dinner tonight. Was a little skeptical about the onion and apple combo, but it was super yummy and the whole family loved it! I had to eat mine with a knife and fork because I wasn't sure how many apples it took and we have a big family, so we had lots of "topping" but it was really good and very filling. I had a salad on the table too, but no one needed more than the sandwich to get full. Hungry Girl rocks!

Hard to believe this is as low in calories because it taste so good--a great flavor combination! I think I might not cook the apples next time because the crunch would be an added texture bonus. As always, way to go Lisa!

It was great! So flavorful,so easy and so different from the rest of my DIET recipes. My husband loved it and I will make it again. I did chop up my chicken when it was cookied to make it easier to eat and then put it on the bread. It was so tasty that I felt that it must have way more calories! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You, for giving me a recipe that I will use over and over again.
