I enjoyed this sandwich at The Smokestack in Thurber, TX. It is a chicken version of the popular patty melt. Sort of a chicken grilled cheese. Prep time includes grilling a chicken breast.

    So good & easy. I grilled chicken breasts seasoned with garlic earlier in the day and then pulled the sandwich together with a salad for a quick dinner. My chicken breasts were pretty thick, so I cut them in half length-wise, which I think made them lay better on the bread, more flat. I made one sandwich with swiss and one with pepperjack for me & hubby. Both were excellent. Hubby dipped his in spicy mustard, while I ate mine plain. This has a lot of possibilities with various cheeses, etc. Thanks!

    So simply and so full of flavor. I love it. I used chicken tenders and marinated them in some seasonings, grilled them up alongside the onions, and then assembled and grilled the sandwiches on our george foreman grill. Wonderul. We really liked this and will definitally be making them again. Thanks Riff!

    I was looking for something different to do with my boobs and it was suggested I give this one a try. I marinaded the chicken for about 30 minutes prior to grilling and assembled the rest of the sandwiches while the breast were grilling. Quick and easy and the meat very juicy. My family really enjoyed these and I think we will be making these a lot this spring. Thanks Riff! These are a real treat!
