Chicken Parmesan grilled cheese sandwich

2 slices of bread (your choice, but a sturdy bread like sourdough works well)
• 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded or sliced
• 1/2 cup marinara sauce
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions:
1. Prepare the Chicken:
• If you haven’t already, cook and shred or slice the chicken breast. You can use leftovers or cook it fresh. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Assemble the Sandwich:
• Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on one side of each bread slice.
• Layer the shredded chicken over the sauce on one slice of bread.
• Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese over the chicken.
• Optionally, sprinkle dried basil and garlic powder over the cheese for extra flavor.
• Top with the other slice of bread, sauce side down.
3. Cook the Sandwich:
• Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter. You can use more if needed for a crispier crust.
• Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even grilling.
4. Serve:
• Remove from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing.
Serve hot and Enjoy.
