Instructions

1
Layer & build
Layer the chopped, chilled butter chicken and shredded mozzarella evenly between the sourdough slices.
2
The chilling
The chilling of the chicken is crucial to prevent the bread from turning to mush before cooking.
3
Griddle & mark
Grill in a skillet heavily lubricated with olive oil until the bread undergoes a dark Maillard browning and the cheese acts as a waterproof binder.
