Ingredients
  

4 slices of thick brioche bread

2 large eggs

1/2 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded or sliced

4 slices of cheddar cheese

2 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons butter

Maple syrup (optional, for drizzling)

Fresh spinach or arugula (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the French Toast Batter: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.

    Coat the Bread: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little butter. Dip each slice of brioche bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side. Ensure the bread is well-coated but not soggy.

      Cook the French Toast: Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from skillet and set aside.

        Assemble the Sandwich: Spread mayonnaise on one side of one slice of French toast. Layer on the shredded chicken, a slice of cheddar cheese, and a handful of fresh spinach or arugula. Top with another slice of French toast, mayonnaise side down.

          Toast the Sandwich: Wipe the skillet clean and return it to medium heat. Add a bit more butter, then place the assembled sandwich in the skillet. Press down slightly and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown and crispy.

            Serve: Slice the sandwich in half and drizzle with maple syrup if desired. Enjoy your delicious French Toast Chicken Sandwich warm, garnished with additional spinach or arugula on the side.
