Havarti Buffalo Chicken Dip Grilled Cheese

Havarti Buffalo Chicken Dip Grilled Cheese

ingredients

  • 8 oz Castello® Havarti
  • 8 slices of crusty bread
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp butter, softened
  • 12 frozen crispy chickens tenders
  • ½ cups barbeque sauce
  • 8 slices thick cut bacon
  • salt and pepper, to taste

preparation

Combine mayonnaise and softened butter in a small bowl and set aside.

Cook bacon until crispy, and blot with paper towels after cooking. Set aside.

Cook chicken tenders according to package instructions. In a large bowl, toss the tenders with the buffalo sauce until fully coated, then set aside.

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, generously spread mayonnaise/butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread. This will be the outside of the sandwich.

Layer each sandwich with 1 oz of the Castello Creamy Havarti Cheese, followed by two slices of bacon, three buffalo chicken tenders, 1 more oz of Castello Creamy Havarti Cheese, and then the top slice of bread.

Grill the sandwiches on the preheated skillet for about 4-6 minutes per side, until the cheese is melty and the bread is beautifully golden and toasted.

Serve immediately, sprinkled with salt and pepper as desired.
