Assembly

  • 2 packs King's Hawaiian original Hawaiian sweet rolls 24 rolls; do not separate
  • 3-4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 0.25 red onion thinly sliced

Instructions
 

Grilled Chicken

  • Coat the chicken tenders in the seasonings and olive oil.
  • Heat a pan on medium-high heat.
  • Cook the chicken tenders until they are cooked through and lightly seared on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
  • Rest the tenders on a chopping board for 5 minutes, then chop them into cubes and toss them on the chopping board to pick up all the juices. Set aside.

Spinach Alfredo Sauce

  • Melt the butter in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add the chopped onion and sauté until it softens, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and spices, and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Add the flour and toast it for a minute.
  • Add the milk and cream. Turn the heat to low, and cook the sauce for a few minutes while stirring until it thickens up.
  • Turn off the heat, and stir in the spinach and parmesan cheese. Taste and adjust as needed.

Assembly

  • Pre-heat your oven to 350F and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Divide each sheet of rolls into 2 halves, so you have 4 'flatbread' sheets. Place them on the baking sheets.
  • Bake the bread for about 8 minutes until it becomes toasted and lightly golden. Remove from the oven.
  • Spread the spinach alfredo sauce on top of the toasted bread.
  • Sprinkle over half of the shredded mozzarella cheese, distribute the cubed grilled chicken, then top off with the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese and thinly sliced onion.
  • Turn your oven to the broil/grill setting (500F with top grill). Place the assembled bread in the oven for broil for 5-8 minutes until the cheese on top is melted and golden.
  • Slice up, serve and enjoy!
