Ingredients
– 2 slices of bread (your choice: sourdough, white, or whole grain)
– 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded

– 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
Creating Lazy Chicken Parmesan Grilled Cheese is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, and half of the mozzarella cheese.
2. Butter the Bread: Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. This will create a golden crust when grilled.
3. Assemble the Sandwich: Place one slice of bread, butter side down, on a skillet. Layer with the chicken mixture, followed by the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Top with the second slice of bread, butter side up.
4. Cook the Sandwich: Heat the skillet over medium heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, flipping carefully, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
5. Serve and Garnish: Once cooked, remove the sandwich from the skillet. Cut it in half and garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired. Serve warm.
Follow these steps, and you’ll have a delicious and satisfying Lazy Chicken Parmesan Grilled Cheese ready to enjoy!
