CHICKEN CORDON BLEU

4 servings.

1 teaspoon margarine or butter
4 small skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (1 pound)
1/2 cup fat-free chicken broth
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
4 thin slices cooked ham (2 ounces)
4 thin slices part-skim mozzarella cheese (2 ounces)
5- to 6-ounce bag washed baby spinach

1. In skillet, melt margarine over medium-high heat until hot.
Add chicken and cook 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and turn chicken over; cover and cook until chicken is golden brown and just loses its pink color throughout, about 5 minutes longer.
2. Increase heat to medium-high. Stir in broth, vinegar and pepper; cook, uncovered, 1 minute. Remove skillet from heat; top each chicken breast with a slice of ham, then a slice of cheese. Cover skillet until cheese melts, about 3 minutes.
3. Arrange spinach on platter; top with chicken breasts and drizzle with pan sauce.
