Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 4 (8 ounces) bread rolls (I used a whole what bun/roll; a hoagie roll would also be really good)
  • 300 grams boneless skinless chicken breast (grilled then thin sliced, 2 breasts, you could also use 2-3 thighs)
  • 4 slices (4 ounces) ham, cooked (honey baked ham, not too thin)
  • 4 slices (4 ounces) prosciutto ham (fairly thin but not falling apart)
  • 4 slices (4 ounces) Swiss cheese slices (again - not too thin)
  • 1 onion, thin sliced (medium onion)
  • FOR SAUCE
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise (no Miracle Whip)
  • 1 1/4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon honey
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Chicken ... Whatever method you prefer to grill your chicken is fine. Now, as I mentioned, I used my recipe for Buttermilk, Honey Dijon Grilled Chicken, but you can just grill plain chicken or even oven bake if you want. Once the chicken is done, let it rest before slicing. And again, you can use breasts or thighs - but make sure to cover the chicken with foil to keep it warm. You could easily make this a day or so ahead and reheat for a minute in the microwave.

  • Step 2: Rolls, Ham, Proscuitto... The ham and proscuitto need to be warmed, the rolls toasted and the cheese melted. So - you can use your oven, or I used the grill. Heat up the oven to Broil, and add a sheet of foil to a small baking sheet. Add the proscuitto and ham in individuals piles so they all heat up, and warm on the second shelf down - so they don't brown, just warm and cook a couple of minutes. Also, as the ham warms up, add the rolls, cut side up so they can toast.

  • Step 3: Once the rolls are toasted, remove and top each bottom half with a very light slather of the sauce. Top with a slice of warm pancetta, onion slices and swiss cheese and back under the broiler - second shelf down so the cheese melts but doesn't burn.

  • Step 4: Sandwich ... Once the cheese has melted, remove from the broiler and top with the ham, thin sliced chicken, and finish with the top roll, also slathered with some of the sauce.

  • Step 5: Serve ... Add some fries or chips and a pickle and ENJOY! You could also serve this with a bowl of soup for dinner.
