Instructions
-
Prepare the Bread: Begin by lightly brushing oil over the slices of bread. This step not only enhances the flavor but also helps achieve a delightful golden crust when cooked.
-
-
Spread the Sauce: Generously spread tomato ketchup over the oiled bread slices, ensuring even coverage for a burst of flavor in every bite.
-
Layer the Toppings: Next, place the cooked, shredded chicken evenly over the ketchup, followed by slices of fresh tomatoes and onions. The combination of these ingredients adds a refreshing crunch and depth to your snack.
-
Season to Taste: Sprinkle salt, red chili powder, and black pepper over the layered ingredients. Adjust the seasonings to your preference, allowing the spices to meld perfectly with the other flavors.
-
Add Cheese: Top everything off with a generous layer of grated cheddar cheese, ensuring that every bite will be rich and cheesy.
-
Microwave the Snack: Place the prepared bread in the microwave and cook for about 7 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and everything is heated through. If you prefer a crispier texture, consider toasting it in an oven or a skillet instead.
-
Serve Hot: Once ready, remove the Pizza Snack from the microwave, let it cool for a moment, and then serve hot. Enjoy this flavorful treat alone or share it with family and friends!
