Ingredients
  

Sandwich Filling
  • 4 slices sourdough bread thick cut
  • 1.5 cups shredded chicken cooked/rotisserie
  • 1.5 cups mozzarella/provolone cheese shredded mix
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise optional
Garlic Herb Butter
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter softened
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tbsp parmesan cheese grated

Equipment

  • Non-stick Skillet
  • Small mixing bowl
  • Spatula
  • Knife

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, and parmesan to create the garlic butter.
  2. Toss the shredded chicken with mayonnaise and a pinch of black pepper in a separate bowl.
  3. Spread the garlic butter generously on one side of each bread slice.
  4. Flip bread over (butter side down). Layer cheese, chicken mixture, and more cheese on the un-buttered side.
  5. Top with the second slice of bread, ensuring the buttered side is facing up (out).
  6. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Cook sandwich for 3-4 minutes per side, covering initially to help cheese melt.
  7. Cook until bread is golden brown and cheese is fully melted. Serve immediately.

Notes

Use medium-low heat to prevent the garlic from burning before the cheese melts.
