There are a million and two types of healthy eating approaches as I’m sure you’ve noticed by now.
When it comes to me, my nutrition approach and what you can count on your LG recipes to provide… it’s your favorite, delicious foods made lighter and healthier.
Chicken Parm has always been one of my favorite things to order out. The Wisconsin in me loves that pound of cheese they slap on top lol. There’s something about chicken parmesean in any form that is so satisfying!
Today’s Grab + Go Chicken Parmesean Sandwich is a healthier alternative to those dishes that you can eat on the fly! Enjoy!
I N G R E D I E N T S
1 cup shredded rotisserie chicken
¼ cup pasta sauce
2 tablespoons shredded Monterey Jack
1 tablespoon fresh basil, roughly chopped
2 Ezekiel tortillas, or other gluten-free tortillas (I like Udi’s brand)
1 tablespoon olive oil
I N S T R U C T I O N S
Mix together the chicken and sauce. Either microwave it for 1 minute, or place in a small saucepan and warm though on low heat.
Heat the tortillas in a large skillet over medium-low heat, for 30 seconds a side.
Quickly divide chicken mixture between the tortillas. Then, divide the cheese between the tortillas.
Quickly wrap them up like burritos.
Heat olive oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat.
To test the oil to see if it’s hot enough, drop a tiny piece of tortilla into it. If it sizzles immediately, the oil is hot.
Place the sandwiches seam side down in the pan. Brown the sandwiches on both sides, and slice in half with a serrated knife.
