Chicken Parmesan Grilled Cheese Sandwich – A Perfect Fusion of Comfort Food

If you haven’t already, cook and shred or slice the chicken breast. You can use leftover chicken or cook it fresh. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Assemble the Sandwich:
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on one side of each slice of bread.
Layer the shredded chicken over the sauce on one slice of bread.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken.
Optionally, sprinkle dried basil and garlic powder over the cheese for extra flavor.
Top with the other slice of bread, sauce side down.
3. Cook the Sandwich:
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter. You can add more for a crispier crust.
Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even grilling.
4. Serve:
Remove from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy!
