Method

For the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and evenly coat them with blackening seasoning.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Place the seasoned chicken breasts on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest.

For the Vegetables

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Slice the bell pepper and onion, then add them to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

For the Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Focaccia Sandwich

    Slice the grilled chicken into strips. On one slice of focaccia, layer the mixed greens, followed by the blackened chicken, sautéed peppers and onions, and a slice of swiss cheese. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the top and place the second slice of focaccia on top.

  2. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    Place the assembled focaccia sandwich on the grill for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is crispy and the cheese is melted.

For Serving

  1. 6

    Serve with Soup

    Heat your choice of soup in a small pot over medium heat. Serve the chicken focaccia sandwich alongside the cup of soup.
