Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons prepared brown mustard
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cups broccoli florets

  • Meanwhile, bring 1/2 inch of water to a boil in a small saucepan with a lid. Add the broccoli, and cook for 7 minutes, or until tender but still bright green. Drain, and set aside.
  • Shred or cube the chicken, and place onto the bottom half of the focaccia bread. Spread the broccoli over the chicken, and top with mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake this part of the sandwich (without the top) for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Place the top of the bread over the filling, and bake for another 5 minutes to heat through. Cut into small squares to serve.
