Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese
Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese is a flavor-packed twist on an old favorite. Filled with smoky gouda, BBQ chicken, and red onion, this recipe is a quick and easy way to make lunch way more exciting.
Equipment
- 2 Large Pans
- Baster
Ingredients
- 1 Red Onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
- 3 cups Chicken, Shredded Cooked
- 2 tablespoons Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 cups Honey BBQ Sauce
- 8 slices Gouda Cheese
- ¼ cup Butter
- 2 tablespoons Dried Parsley
- 8 slices Brioche Bread
Instructions
- Add the oil to a large pan, add the onions, and cook for 2-3 minutes while stirring until slightly soft. Add the chicken, garlic powder, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, and BBQ sauce. Mix together until everything is coated. Turn off the heat and set aside.
- In a microwaveable bowl, add the butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley and microwave for 10-30 seconds, or just until melted. Place the 8 pieces of bread on parchment paper and spread the butter mixture on only one side of all the pieces of bread with a baster.
- Flip each piece of bread over, butter side down, and add a slice of cheese to 4 of the slices. Then, add the chicken mixture on top of each cheese slice, dividing it evenly. Place 4 more cheese slices on top of each one. Next, place the other pieces of bread on top of the cheese; make sure the buttered sides are facing out, not in.
- Spray a large pan with nonstick cooking oil and cook the grilled cheese over medium to low heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until you get the color you want on the bread. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
Christina's Notes
- Spice: Make these sandwiches spicier with red pepper flakes, chili powder, or cayenne pepper. You can even add a bit of hot sauce.
- Cheese: Feel free to use different cheeses, like cheddar, Swiss, provolone, Monterey jack, or pepper jack cheese. For even more melty cheese, top the sandwiches with two slices instead of one.
