BBQ Bacon Chicken Grilled Cheese Melts

2 slices of your favorite bread

1 cup cooked chicken, shredded

4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

½ cup barbecue sauce

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 tbsp butter

¼ tsp garlic powder

¼ tsp black pepper

Prepare Chicken Mixture: In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, and barbecue sauce. Mix until well-coated.

Butter Bread: Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Sprinkle garlic powder and black pepper on the buttered side for extra flavor.

Assemble Sandwich: On the unbuttered side of one slice, layer half of the cheese, followed by the chicken mixture, and then the remaining cheese. Top with the other slice of bread, buttered side up.

Grill Sandwich: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the skillet and grill for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Serve & Enjoy: Remove from heat, cut in half, and serve hot. Perfect for a quick dinner or a game day snack!
