Main Dishes > Chicken >
Ingredients
Preparation 10 minutes, cooking time 15 minutes
1 teaspoon margarine or butter
4 small skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (1 pound)
1/2 cup fat-free chicken broth
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/8 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
4 thin slices cooked ham (2 ounces)
4 thin slices part-skim mozzarella cheese (2 ounces)
5- to 6-ounce bag prewashed baby spinach
Directions
In nonstick 12-inch skillet, melt margarine over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken and cook 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and turn chicken over; cover and cook until chicken is golden brown and just loses its pink color throughout, about 5 minutes longer.
Increase heat to medium-high. Stir in broth, vinegar and pepper; cook, uncovered, 1 minute. Remove skillet from heat; top each chicken breast with a slice of ham, then a slice of cheese. Cover skillet until cheese melts, about 3 minutes.
Arrange spinach on large platter; top with chicken breasts and drizzle with pan sauce. Makes 4 main-dish servings.
