Crispy garlic bread, juicy chicken, and melted cheese combine for a decadent sandwich full of savory flavor.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ For the sandwich

01 - 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
02 - 2 large slices garlic bread
03 - 120 grams mozzarella cheese, grated
04 - 15 grams Parmesan cheese, grated (optional, for topping)
05 - 15 grams mayonnaise
06 - 15 grams mustard
07 - Salt, to taste
08 - Black pepper, to taste
09 - 5 grams garlic powder (optional)
10 - Fresh parsley or basil, chopped, for garnish

→ For homemade garlic butter spread

11 - 60 grams unsalted butter, softened
12 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
13 - 2.5 grams salt

# How to Make It:

01 - Season chicken breasts or thighs with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cook the chicken using your preferred method: grill, bake, or pan-fry for 6 to 7 minutes per side until fully cooked. Slice cooked chicken into strips.
02 - If making garlic bread from scratch, blend softened butter with minced garlic and salt. Spread the mixture evenly over bread slices. Bake at 190°C for 10 minutes, or until the bread is golden and crisp.
03 - Arrange sliced chicken, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese on one slice of garlic bread. Add mayonnaise and mustard as desired. Place the second garlic bread slice on top to form the sandwich.
04 - Grill the assembled sandwich in a pan or bake in the oven at 190°C for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.
05 - Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley or basil, and serve hot.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Swap chicken for grilled vegetables or plant-based protein for a vegetarian option.
02 - Blend different cheeses such as gouda, provolone, or cheddar with mozzarella for varied flavor.
03 - Enhance with jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce for added heat.
