BBQ Chicken Grilled Cheese 🥪🍗🧀


  • Author: Dulcia
  • Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

Scale

For the BBQ Chicken:

2 tablespoons olive oil 🫒
1 small red onion, thinly sliced 🧅
3 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
2 ½ cups shredded roast chicken 🍗
½ teaspoon paprika 🌶️
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup BBQ sauce 🍖
12 slices Havarti cheese 🧀
For the Garlic Butter Bread:

¼ cup butter 🧈
2 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
2 teaspoons parsley, minced 🌿
12 slices sourdough bread or sturdy white bread 🍞


Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the BBQ Chicken:
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook onions until soft, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the shredded chicken, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, and BBQ sauce. Stir to combine and cook until everything is heated through, about 2-3 minutes. 🍗

2️⃣ Prepare the Garlic Butter Bread:
In a medium bowl, combine butter, garlic, and minced parsley. Microwave until melted. 🧈🧄🌿

3️⃣ Assemble the Sandwiches:
Lay 12 slices of bread on your work surface. Spread the melted butter mixture over each piece. 🍞

4️⃣ Add the Fillings:
Turn each piece of bread over and top 6 of the slices with a slice of Havarti cheese. Divide the BBQ chicken mixture evenly over the cheese slices, then add another slice of cheese on top of the chicken. Top with the remaining 6 slices of bread, ensuring both the bottom and top have the buttered side exposed. 🧀🍗🧀

5️⃣ Grill the Sandwiches:
Place the buttered sandwiches in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook until the bottoms of the sandwiches are browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the sandwiches over, reduce heat to medium-low, and continue cooking until the bottom is browned and the cheese is melted, another 3 to 5 minutes. 🥪🔥

6️⃣ Serve and Enjoy:
Serve the grilled cheese sandwiches hot and enjoy the delicious BBQ chicken and melted cheese goodness! 😋
