Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 slices of bread (your choice)
- 4 tablespoons butter, softened
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: sliced pickles or jalapeños for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken and BBQ sauce. Mix well to evenly coat the chicken with the sauce.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Lay out 4 slices of bread. Divide the BBQ chicken mixture evenly among the slices, then top with shredded cheddar cheese. Place the remaining slices of bread on top to form sandwiches.
- Grill the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Carefully place 2 sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and the cheese has melted. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches.
- Serve: Once grilled, remove the sandwiches from the skillet. Slice in half if desired, and serve hot with optional pickles or jalapeños on the side.
