Creamy Shredded Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich Melt

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, mix shredded chicken, ranch dressing, cream cheese, garlic powder, black pepper, cheddar, mozzarella, and bacon until creamy and fully combined.
2. Butter one side of each bread slice.
3. Spread a thick, even layer of the chicken mixture onto the unbuttered side of a slice.
4. Top with another bread slice, buttered side facing out.
5. Grill in a skillet over medium heat for 3–4 minutes per side until golden, crisp, and fully melted inside.
6. Slice and serve hot.

Variations

• Add sliced jalapeños or pickled jalapeños for extra heat.
• Drizzle hot honey inside the melt for a sweet–spicy contrast.
• Swap cheddar for pepper jack for a bolder flavor.
• Add thin tomato slices for a fresh, juicy layer.

Tips

• Keep the heat medium to prevent burning the bread before the cheese melts.
• Press gently with a spatula while cooking for an even melt and crispier edges.
• For an even creamier filling, add an extra tablespoon of ranch or cream cheese.
