Description
Sink your teeth into the Easy Cheesy Chicken Turkey Turkey Bacon Ranch Sandwich! Zesty ranch-coated chicken, crispy turkey turkey bacon, and melted cheese on a warm bun deliver ultimate comfort.
Ingredients
- Cooked chicken breast, shredded – 2 cups
- Turkey turkey bacon – 6 slices
- Ranch dressing – 1/2 cup
- Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese slices – 8 slices
- Hoagie rolls or sandwich buns – 4
- Unsalted butter, softened – 2 tablespoons
- Black pepper – 1/4 teaspoon
Instructions
- Step 1: Cook the turkey beef bacon according to package directions in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble into small pieces.
- Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with the ranch dressing and black pepper. Stir well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
- Step 3: Preheat your oven broiler or an oven to 375°F (190°C). Carefully slice the hoagie rolls or buns lengthwise without cutting all the way through, creating a hinge. Spread the softened butter evenly on the inside of each roll.
- Step 4: Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the four prepared rolls, spreading it from end to end. Sprinkle the crumbled turkey turkey bacon over the chicken in each sandwich.
- Step 5: Top each sandwich with two slices of cheese. Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet.
- Step 6: Broil for 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning, or bake for 5-7 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the rolls are lightly toasted. Serve warm.
Notes
- If you happen to have any leftovers, store them snugly in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days; these sandwiches truly shine when enjoyed fresh!
- For the best comeback, pop your leftover sandwich into a toaster oven or conventional oven at 300°F (150°C) for about 10-15 minutes until it's warmed through and the cheese is wonderfully re-melted.
- Complement this rich and savory sandwich with a crisp green salad tossed in a light vinaigrette, a side of crunchy pickle spears, or a serving of sweet potato fries for a perfectly balanced meal.
- For an extra level of deliciousness and a perfect golden crunch, lightly toast your buttered hoagie rolls under the broiler for just a minute or two *before* adding the chicken filling, then proceed as directed for that beautiful melted cheese.
