Ingredients:
- 2 High-quality frozen breaded chicken patties
- 4 Thick slices of Sourdough bread
- 3 tbsp Unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Dried oregano
- 1 cup Shredded low-moisture mozzarella
- 1/4 cup Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup Marinara sauce
- 4 leaves Fresh basil (optional)
Instructions:
- Cook the frozen chicken patties according to package directions, preferably in an air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 8–10 minutes until the coating is deep golden and internal temperature is hot.
- In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Mix until smooth. Note: This creates a compound butter that flavors the bread more effectively than just oil.
- Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly onto one side of each sourdough slice.
- Place two slices of bread, butter side down, in a cold non stick skillet. Layer 1/4 cup of mozzarella on each slice until the bread surface is completely covered. Note: This is your moisture barrier!
- Add 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce over the cheese, then place the cooked chicken patty on top.
- Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and the remaining mozzarella over the patty.
- Top with the remaining bread slices, butter side up.
- Turn the heat to medium and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until the bread is mahogany brown and the cheese is fully melted.
- Press down gently with a spatula halfway through to help the layers fuse together.
- Remove from heat and let rest for 1 minute before slicing diagonally to keep the cheese from running out.
