Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices garlic bread: The star of the show garlic bread provides a crunchy exterior and is infused with delicious garlic flavor. You can use store-bought or homemade garlic bread.
  • 1 cup cooked chicken shredded: Cooked chicken is the heart of this sandwich. It adds protein and a savory depth, making the sandwich filling but not overly heavy.
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese: This cheese melts beautifully providing that stretchy, gooey texture that everybody loves.
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese: This adds a lovely sharpness and depth of flavor complementing the mozzarella.
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise: Adds a creamy rich texture while keeping the filling moist.
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard: It introduces a tangy bite balancing the richness of the mayonnaise and cheeses.
  • Salt and pepper to taste: Essential seasonings that enhance the flavors of the dish.

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of shredded cooked chicken with 1/4 cup of mayonnaise and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce. This step enriches the chicken with flavor and ensures that every bite is creamy and delightful.
  2. Assemble the Sandwich: Take one slice of garlic bread and spread the chicken mixture generously over it. Then, layer it with 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese followed by 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Top with the second slice of garlic bread, assembling the sandwich. This layering of cheesy goodness creates a melty masterpiece.
  3. Grill the Sandwich: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the assembled sandwich in the skillet. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning. You want that perfect crispy texture outside while inside, the cheese should be oozing. If you have a lid for your skillet, covering it will help melt the cheese faster.
  4. Serve: Once grilled to perfection, remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for a minute or two. This makes cutting it easier and helps prevent burns. Cut it in half and enjoy warm! It’s the perfect indulgent meal.
