500g chicken breast

2 red bell peppers (tatashe)

1tbsp my active kitchen suya spice (any other spice would be fine too)

10 Single cheddar cheese

Liquid maggi

how to make chicken melt sandwich

Cut chicken breast into strips about 1cm thick and set aside (add liquid maggi to seasoning if using otherwise sprinkle with some salt or seasoning)

Wash and cut bell pepper and onions into strips and set aside

Place a wok on medium heat and add 2tbsp of vegetable oil, add the chicken strips and stir fry making sure you stir the chicken to avoid burning. Cook until chicken is white and cooked through. About 5 minutes should do. The chicken is likely to produce liquid, decant the liquid and set the chicken aside.

Place the wok back on the heat, add 2tbsp vegetable oil, add the mixed peppers and onions, stir fry for about 2 minutes, add suya spice, seasoning, salt and cayenne pepper and continue to stir fry for another 2 minutes. Add the cooked chicken strips and continue to stir fry for another 3 minutes. Taste for salt and seasoning and adjust accordingly.

Time to arrange the best chicken melt sandwich ever

Slice the bread into 10 or 12 equal slices

Butter one side each till you’ve exhausted the bread and set it aside

Place a frying pan on medium heat, add one sliced bread with the buttered side facing down. Add a cheese slice on the bread, add some chicken stir fry and another slice of cheese then cover with another slice of bread. Use a spatula to press down the bread for about 30 seconds until browned and cheese cooked. Carefully flip the sandwich to the other side and cook till golden brown or well toasted.

Continue this process until you’ve exhausted all the bread and fillings.

Serve warm with coffee, tea or hot chocolate.
