Grilled Chees Special



So I always try to find ways to make something regular into something ~SPECIAL~ I've been making this dish for a couple of years now and my husband and daughter love it! It is a flavorful  twist on your typical grilled cheese sandwich, and I would love to share it with you.
 You will need:
         - One pack of chicken tenderloins
         - Turkey bacon (or regular bacon of your choice)
         - Pepperoni
         - 8 oz. block of mozzarella cheese (or sliced if preferred)
         - Texas toast
         -1/4 Cup Butter
         - 1tbs. Lawry seasoned salt

This will make enough for about 6-7 sandwiches depending on how many tenderloins come in the pack. I usually use one tenderloin per sandwich.

First preheat my oven to 375*F. Then I melt about 1/4th cup of butter in the microwave and add one tablespoon of Lawry Seasoned Salt. Once the butter is all melted and combined with the seasoned salt, I add my chicken and let it marinade while my oven finishes preheating. Next I took my bacon and cut it in half, like so


I then made this little square with the bacon in order for it to fit neatly onto the sandwich. and wrapped it up in foil so that I can cook it in the oven with no mess!

 
Once the oven is ready I put my chicken and bacon to cook. Chicken I will cook for 20 min and the turkey bacon I will leave for 30 min. Also Keep in mind that regular bacon might not fully cook with these directions. While that is cooking, I take my 8 oz. block of mozzarella cheese and begin making thin slices. Once that is done I will preheat my Presto Griddle to 350* F. You may also use any other nonstick pan on a stovetop and cook on medium to high heat.
 
Once the chicken is done remove from oven, cut into 4ths and begin to make your grilled cheese. Butter both sides of your Texas toast and place on griddle for a couple of minutes till toasty and flip then add your cheese slices to fully cover the bread, then peperoni about 5 pieces, followed by your chicken and topped of with your bacon. While you are creating you beautifully delicious grilled cheese, make sure you are also letting the other slice of bread fully cook on one side, so when you top your sandwich off you can flip it and cook the other side of that slice... Makes sense? okay!
 
Once you are done you should have something that looks a little like this...
 

If you make this dish I would love to know your thoughts! So please leave comments down below.
