Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich

I'm not a big tomato soup person, so the thought of making a grilled cheese to dunk into tomato soup just doesn't appeal to me. I love spicy food, my husband does not. You can modify this recipe to be as spicy as you'd like, or not. Enjoy!

Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich
serves 4



1 can of cooked chicken breast (although I prefer to use fresh, but if you're in a time crunch, you gotta do what you gotta do)
3 tbsp blue cheese dressing
1/4 cup hot sauce
shredded mozzarella cheese
8 thin slices of sourdough bread
2 tbsp butter

In a skillet, preferably cast iron, melt 1 tbsp of butter over medium heat. Let the pan get reallllly hot and the butter will start to bubble. Put one slice of bread into pan. It will soak up the buttery goodness and begin to brown. 

In the meantime, shred the chicken in a small saucepan with a fork. Add the blue cheese and hot sauce. Heat until bubbling.

On top of that slice of bread in the pan, smear the buffalo chicken mix and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Top with another slice of bread, flip to brown the other side. 

For every 2 sandwiches you make, use 1 tbsp of butter. Be sure to melt the butter in the pan, first, before adding the bread. It will make for a nice, golden brown, crunchy sandwich. 

Enjoy!
