Method
0 of 10 done- Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan). Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme (if using).
- Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook the chicken breast for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through. Remove from pan and let it rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly.
- While the chicken is cooking, spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
- On the unbuttered side of one bread slice, spread mayonnaise and Dijon mustard.
- Layer the sliced chicken breast on top of the mayonnaise and mustard.
- Grate the mature cheddar cheese and sprinkle it evenly over the chicken.
- Top with the other slice of sourdough bread, buttered side up.
- Heat a clean frying pan over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Transfer the sandwich to a baking tray and finish in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, to ensure the cheese is fully melted and the sandwich is heated through.
- Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, then slice in half and serve immediately.
