4.50g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 tbsp pepper sauce

8g
1/2 carrot
30g

6g
2 slices white bread
50g
1 tbsp butter
14g
1/2 oz blue cheese
14g
1/2 cup cheddar cheese
54g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken:
- Season the chicken breasts with the dash of black pepper and salt.
- Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.
- Once cooked, remove from heat and let cool slightly. Shred the chicken using two forks.
2. Mix the Chicken Filling:
- In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken with 1 tbsp buffalo pepper sauce and 1/2 tbsp mayonnaise. Stir until well coated.
- Add the finely grated carrot, finely chopped celery, and finely chopped onion to the chicken mixture. Mix well to evenly distribute the vegetables.
3. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Lay out the slices of white bread on a cutting board.
- Butter one side of each slice of bread with 1/2 tbsp of butter. The buttered side will be the outside of the sandwich.
- On the unbuttered side of one slice, sprinkle half of the grated cheddar cheese.
- Evenly spread the buffalo chicken mixture over the cheddar cheese.
- Sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese over the chicken mixture.
- Finish with the remaining grated cheddar cheese.
- Place the other slice of bread on top, buttered side facing out.
4. Grill the Sandwich:
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Carefully place the assembled sandwich in the skillet.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted.
- Use a spatula to press down gently on the sandwich to ensure even cooking and melting of the cheese.
5. Serve:
- Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for a minute.
- Slice in half and serve immediately.

Tips:

- Use fresh, high-quality chicken breasts for the best flavor and texture.

- If you prefer a spicier sandwich, add more pepper sauce to taste.

- Grate your own cheddar cheese for the best melting consistency and flavor.

- Toast the bread slices lightly before assembling the sandwich to ensure extra crispiness.

- Consider adding a slice of tomato or some lettuce for additional freshness and crunch.

- Cook the sandwich on medium-low heat to ensure the cheese melts evenly without burning the bread.
