Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast (shredded or sliced)
- 1 cup Mushrooms (button or cremini, sliced)
- 1 cup Gruyere cheese (shredded)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 8 slices Bread (sourdough or your choice)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 tablespoons Butter (softened, for spreading)
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until softened.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season the mushroom mixture with salt and pepper, then remove from heat.
Butter one side of each slice of bread. Lay four slices, buttered side down, on a clean surface.
Evenly divide the shredded chicken among the four slices of bread. Top the chicken with the cooked mushroom mixture, followed by a generous sprinkle of shredded Gruyere cheese.
Place the remaining four slices of bread on top, buttered side up, to create sandwiches.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small pat of butter to the skillet if desired for extra crispiness.
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted. Use a spatula to carefully press down on the sandwiches as they cook for even browning.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before cutting them in half and serving.
