Ingredients
- Cooked Chicken Breast: 2 cups shredded or finely chopped (about 300 grams)
- Caesar Dressing: 1/3 cup (about 80 milliliters)
- Romaine Lettuce: 1 cup finely chopped (about 50 grams)
- Grated Parmesan Cheese: 1/4 cup (about 25 grams)
- Shredded Mozzarella Cheese: 1 cup (about 120 grams)
- Sandwich Bread: 4 slices, thick cut
- Unsalted Butter: 2 tablespoons (about 30 grams), softened
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Heat a skillet over medium heat so it is ready when your sandwich is assembled
- Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, mix shredded chicken, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and chopped romaine until evenly coated
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Lightly butter one side of each bread slice
- Assemble the Dish: Place two slices butter side down. Spoon the chicken mixture evenly over them, sprinkle mozzarella on top, then close with remaining bread slices, butter side facing up
- Cook to Perfection: Place in the heated skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is melted
- Finishing Touches: Remove from heat and let rest for 1 to 2 minutes before slicing diagonally
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm while the cheese is still deliciously gooey
Notes
- Use freshly grated Parmesan for better melt and flavor
- Press gently while cooking for an even crust
- Toast the inside of the bread lightly before assembling for extra crunch
- Do not overfill to prevent spilling
