Instructions
Instructions
Mix your shredded chicken with the BBQ sauce, diced red onion and pickled jalapeños till it’s all even and coated.
Butter one side of each bread slice; this side’s gonna get grilled first.
Heat a skillet or griddle to medium, hot enough to hear a sizzle but not so much that it burns fast.
Start layering by placing one slice butter side down, then adding a slice each of Monterey or pepper jack and cheddar cheese.
Spread your chicken mix generously right on top of the cheese.
Top with cheese again then add the second bread slice with butter side up.
Cook till golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook the other side till cheese’s all melted and bread’s perfectly toasted.
Remove, let rest a minute, slice, and serve while hot.
Notes
Serve your BBQ chicken grilled cheese hot and enjoy that perfect melty and crunchy combo. Use leftovers by wrapping tight and reheating in a skillet for best texture.
