Gourmet Grilled Cheese!

I thought up this receipe last week, and I've been drooling over it ever since.  I'm usually not very creative in the kitchen, so coming up with this is a huge deal for me.  Hoping you'll try it and enjoy it as much as Kyle and I did!

Gourmet Grilled Cheese

Ingredients:
4oz Chicken
2 Slices Turkey Bacon
1/2 of Shredded Cheese, halved
2 Slices of Sourdough Bread
2 Tbsp of BBQ Sauce
2 Tbsp of Butter, halved
And if you want, a glass of wine to enjoy while cooking



Directions:

1. Chop up the 4oz of chicken into bite sized pieces.  I find it's much easier to cut them when the chicken is still frozen slightly.


2. Remove the battery from the smoke detector, since you ALWAYS set it off while cooking bacon.


3. Cook the bacon over medium heat to desired crispiness.  Remove from pan and place on paper towel to cool.


4. Ignore the dog, who is begging silently with his eyes for you to drop something on the floor for him.



4. Cook the chicken over medium heat in non stick pan until brown and cooked all the way through.  While you are cooking the chicken, chop the bacon into small pieces.

4. Put both the chicken and bacon into a bowl and add the 2 tbsp of BBQ sauce and toss to coat.


5. Assemble the sandwich in the following order:
  • Slice of bread
  • 1/4 Cup of Shredded Cheese
  • Bacon/Chicken BBQ Mixture
  • 1/4 Cup of Shredded Cheese
  • Slice of bread
6. Spread 1 Tbsp of butter onto each slice of bread and cook sandwich on non stick pan over medium heat, flipping once.

7. Put the battery back in the smoke detector (most important step of them all).


Here's the beautiful, finished product:


And here's a pic of pure enjoyment.


Don't you love my awesome orange Flyers shirt that I got for free?  I do.

And I'm off for the night.  To finish my glass of wine and watch a documentary about a lioness and her cubs.  So, that means I will be yelling at the tv.  I know it's 'nature', but it makes me so angry that this other tribe is following her and her babies and trying to kill them.  I mean, jeez, she left the territory they wanted.  Leave her be to raise her young.

Hope you all had a great weekend!
