Instructions *** 5-24-15 excellent, easy *** Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes Total Time: 15 minutes Yield: 4 servings Serving Size: 1 melt Ingredients 12 oz diced cooked chicken 4 TB mayonaise 4 TB prepared pesto 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese 2 tsp garlic, minced salt and pepper, to taste sliced bread of choice (I used rye) butter sliced tomato, optional sliced mozzarella or provolone cheese Instructions Put chicken into a medium sized bowl. Add in mayonnaise, pesto, parmesan cheese, garlic, salt and pepper, and mix well. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Butter one side each of eight slices of bread. (You will only need to butter four slices if making an open-face sandwich.) Once skillet is warm, add one slice of bread to the skillet, butter side down. Immediately layer with one slice of cheese, 1/4 of the parmesan pesto chicken mix, tomato slices (if using), and another slice of cheese. Top with a second slice of bread, butter side up. Allow to cook, about 3 minutes, or until bottom slice of bread has turned golden brown. Flip sandwich with a spatula, and repeat on the other side. Remove melt from skillet and repeat process to make three more sandwiches. For Open-Face Melt: Prepare sandwiches in an oven-safe skillet, using the same process as above, except for leaving off the top layer of bread when layering sandwich ingredients. Cook sandwiches until bottom slice of bread has turned golden brown. Turn oven broiler to high. Place skillet on middle oven rack, and broil for about 2 minutes, or until cheese on top is melted and dotted with brown. Remove skillet from oven and enjoy!
