Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast (shredded)
- 0.33 cup Marinara sauce
- 0.5 cup Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 pieces Fresh basil leaves (optional)
- 4 pieces Bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter (softened)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter and garlic powder until combined.
Spread the garlic butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread. The buttered side will be the outside of the jaffle.
In another bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the marinara sauce until well coated.
Place a slice of bread, buttered side down, on your jaffle maker or sandwich press.
Layer the bread with half of the shredded chicken, 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese, 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese, and 1 basil leaf (if using).
Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side up, to complete the sandwich.
Close your jaffle maker or sandwich press and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
Carefully remove the jaffle and let it cool slightly before slicing it in half.
Repeat the process for the second jaffle. Serve immediately and enjoy.
