Tips to Make Cheesy Chicken Garlic Bread Sandwich

For extra flavor, try adding herbs like parsley or basil to the chicken mixture.
Use a mix of cheeses if you want a richer taste.
Don’t skip the mayonnaise; it helps keep the chicken moist and adds creaminess.

Variation

You can easily customize this sandwich by adding different ingredients. Try using different types of bread, like French bread or sourdough, and switch up the cheese to include pepper jack or gouda for a spicy kick. Adding sautéed vegetables like bell peppers or onions can also enhance the flavor.
