  • 1 cup Fresh Cream
  • 3-4 tbsp Milk
  • tbsp Oregano powder
  • 2 tbsp Chili Powder

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken

  • First, wash the boneless chicken thoroughly and cut them into small cubes.
  • Transfer them into a bowl and add lime juice and vegetable oil.
  • Marinate the chicken nicely. Cover and let it rest for about 2 hours.

Prepare the Stuffing

  • Finely chop the garlic if not using garlic powder. Keep it aside.
  • Cut the onion into half and slice them into thin slices. Keep it aside.
  • Take a pan and add butter.
  • Let the butter heat and then add the chicken cubes to the pan.
  • Add salt to taste and fry them until cooked thoroughly.
  • When done transfer them into a bowl. Keep them aside.
  • In the same pan add butter.
  • Let it heat and then add the sliced onion and sauté it until caramelized. Keep the flame on medium.
  • Now add the finely chopped garlic (skip this step if using garlic powder).
  • Sauté the garlic nicely until golden brown and the raw scent is gone.
  • Next, add the oregano and chili flakes and stir them nicely until fragrant.
  • Add the fresh cream and stir consistently. Keep the flame on low.
  • Stir everything continuously for about 30 seconds. After this add the garlic powder if not using finely chopped garlic.
  • Now, add the cheese slices and keep on stirring until everything comes together and the cheese melts completely.

Add the chicken

  • Now, add the chicken cubes to the pan.
  • Combine all the ingredients well.
  • Take a taste test.
  • Add salt to taste. You can also add a splash of milk if it is too thick and sticks to the pan.
  • Stir everything until a thicker consistency is achieved. Transfer it to the bowl.

Prepare the Sandwich

  • Take 2 slices of bread and put a thin layer of mayonnaise on both slices.
  • Now place a washed lettuce leaf on the mayonnaise side of one slice.
  • Gently place the stuffing on the bread and sprinkle some black pepper powder.
  • Now place another slice on top and gently press it from the top.
  • Do this with the rest of the slices and keep them aside.

Grill the sandwich

  • After this, take a sandwich griller or a grilling pan (you can also use a simple non-stick pan).
  • Add some butter and let it heat. Brush it on both sides if using a sandwich griller.
  • When the butter is heated properly, place the sandwich on the griller and grill it until both sides turn golden brown.
  • Do this with all the sandwiches.
  • When done, cut the sandwiches diagonally and serve them hot.
