Grilled Cheddar Cheese Sandwiches
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1¼ pounds)
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt (divided)
- ¼ teaspoon coarse black pepper
- 1 medium sweet onion (sliced)
- 4 ounces fresh mushrooms (quartered)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoons creamy mustard mayonnaise (divided)
- 4 – 8 slices sourdough bread (I used 2 slices per sandwich, but you can make this open face and just use one thicker slice per sandwich)
- 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
- In a large skillet using the olive oil over medium heat cook onion and mushrooms seasoned with ¼ teaspoon seasoned salt until onion is translucent; set aside and keep warm.
- Pound chicken down to a ¼ inch and sprinkle remaining seasoned salt on both sides.
- Prepare grill for medium heat and lightly oil cooking grates. Place chicken on the grill, using 2 tablespoons of mustard mayonnaise; brush sauce on chicken, turning a couple of times to coat. Grill covered for 10 – 15 minutes (watch closely chicken will cook quickly at ¼ inch thickness.)
- Divide and spoon the onion-mushroom mixture over the top of the chicken, top with cheese, close grill, and cook until cheese is melted; lightly toast bread on the grill.
- Spread remaining mustard sauce over 1 side of 4 pieces of bread and top bread with the chicken to form the sandwich; top with the other piece of bread if using.
