Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise)
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 2 slices American cheese
- 1 cup milk
- Chicken tenders (pre-cooked according to package instructions)
Directions:
-
Prepare the Chicken Tenders:
Begin by cooking the chicken tenders according to the package instructions. Ensure they are thoroughly cooked and heated through. This step usually takes about 10 minutes. -
-
Prepare the Bread:
While the chicken is cooking, take two slices of your favorite bread. Spread Dijon mustard evenly on one side of one slice of bread. On the other slice, spread Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise) evenly. -
Add the Cheese:
On the slice with Dijon mustard, layer 3 slices of Swiss cheese. On the slice with Miracle Whip, place 2 slices of American cheese. The combination of Swiss and American cheeses will melt beautifully and add a rich flavor to your sandwich. -
Assemble the Sandwich:
Once the chicken tenders are cooked, place them hot between the two slices of bread with the cheese. The heat from the chicken will help melt the cheese and bind everything together. -
Grill the Sandwich:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwich in the skillet and grill until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes per side. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even grilling and to help the cheese melt thoroughly. -
Serve with a Glass of Milk:
As the sandwich grills, pour yourself a glass of milk to complement the flavors. It pairs perfectly with the richness of the sandwich. -
Enjoy!
Once your sandwich is grilled to perfection, remove it from the skillet. Let it cool for a minute, then slice and serve. Enjoy this delicious, kid-friendly, and satisfying meal that’s ready in just about 20 minutes!
