Macadamia Chicken Melt
 
Macadamia Chicken Melt
 

Prep and Cook time: About 25 Minutes
Makes: 4 Servings
 

Ingredients

4 boned, skinned chicken breast halves (about 6 oz. each)
1 piece (about 1 lb.), peeled, cored fresh pineapple, cut crosswise into 4 equal slices
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 packages (about 10 oz. each) triple-washed baby spinach
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons chopped salted macadamia nuts

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 450°. Rinse chicken and pat dry. Arrange chicken pieces and pineapple slices in a single layer on rack in a 12- by 15-inch broiler pan.

2. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine mustard, honey, oil, and lime juice. Spoon half of the mixture evenly over chicken and pineapple; set remaining mustard sauce aside. Bake chicken until meat in thickest part is no longer pink; cut to test (12 to 15 minutes).

3. Meanwhile, place spinach in a 5-quart pan; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon water. Cook over high heat, stirring often, until leaves are softened (2 to 3 minutes). Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour spinach from pan into a colander, pressing with a spoon to remove excess moisture. Spoon hot spinach onto a warm platter.

4. Microwave remaining mustard sauce, stirring once, on high (100% power) for 30 to 45 seconds or until heated through.

5. Slice chicken crosswise into even slices. Top spinach with chicken and pineapple. Drizzle with sauce, then sprinkle with nuts.
