Open Faced Chicken Melt Sandwich

Ingredients

  • 2 C cooked chicken, finely chopped
  • ¾ C chopped celery
  • 3 T chopped shallots, scallions or onion
  • ¼ C mayonnaise
  • ¼ C yogurt
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 C chopped apple or grapes
  • 4 slices bread
  • 4 slices cheese
  • Sliced tomato, optional
  • Butter

Instructions

  1. Mix ingredients 1-7 in a small bowl.
  2. Toast the bread, and butter, if desired.
  3. Spread chicken salad mixture on top of toast.
  4. Top with tomato if desired.
  5. Top with cheese.
  6. Broil until cheese is melted and sandwich is heated through.

Note:

Ingredients 1-7 is our regular chicken salad recipe. We used apple for the chicken melt, grapes might be a bit messy for that, but are delightful in the salad version. Serve the salad on croissants, bread, or with crackers.
