Ingredients

2 lbs chicken breast, pounded to 1/2” thick

1 loaf hearty bread like sourdough. I make my own…you can use what you like

2 tsp salt

2 tsp paprika

2 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp onion powder

1 tsp black pepper

1 - 2 tbsp olive oil

3 tbsp butter

6 slices Gouda cheese—more if you want 2 slices per sandwich

Sri Racha to taste (1 2 tbsp)

½ cup Mayo (@chosenfoods avocado oil Mayo)

Directions

Step 1

Pound chicken to 1/2” thick. Lay flat on a large baking sheet & sprinkle with all seasonings on both sides. Rub in thoroughly.

Step 2

Heat a pan with 1 tbsp olive oil to medium high heat & cook on each side for about 5 minutes. Repeat until all chicken is cooked.

Step 3

Slice & butter one side of your bread. Lay buttered side down. Place chicken & cheese on top. Lay another slice of buttered bread on top, buttered side up, and place into pan, cooking for 4 minutes over medium heat. Flip and cook the other side for another 4 minutes.

Step 4

Transfer to a cutting board to cool. Slice & serve with Sri Racha Mayo—simply mix Mayo & Sri Racha together.
