Buffalo Chicken Caesar Grilled Cheese (Printable View)

Spicy buffalo chicken meets creamy Caesar dressing in this indulgent grilled cheese. Golden, crispy, and utterly satisfying.

# What You Need:

→ Buffalo Chicken

01 - 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
02 - 1/4 cup buffalo sauce, plus extra for drizzling
03 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

→ Cheese

04 - 8 slices provolone or mozzarella cheese
05 - 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

→ Caesar Layer

06 - 1/4 cup Caesar dressing
07 - 1 cup romaine lettuce, thinly shredded

→ Bread

08 - 8 slices sturdy country bread or sourdough
09 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

# How To Make It:

01 - In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken with buffalo sauce and melted butter, tossing until evenly coated throughout.
02 - Lay out all bread slices and spread Caesar dressing evenly on one side of each slice.
03 - On four bread slices, layer in sequence: provolone cheese, buffalo chicken mixture, shredded lettuce, Parmesan cheese sprinkle, and top with additional provolone slice.
04 - Place remaining bread slices on top with Caesar dressing facing inward. Spread softened butter on the exterior surface of each sandwich.
05 - Heat large skillet or griddle to medium temperature. Grill sandwiches for 3 to 4 minutes per side, applying gentle pressure, until bread achieves golden color and cheese melts completely.
06 - Remove from heat, allow brief cooling period, slice diagonally if desired, and serve immediately. Drizzle additional buffalo sauce over top as preferred.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Its the perfect mashup of bar food nostalgia and lunchbox comfort
  • The Caesar dressing cuts through the heat like it was always meant to be there
02 -
  • Medium low heat is your friend herehigh heat burns the bread before the cheese melts through
  • Letting the shredded chicken sit in the sauce for even five minutes while you prep everything else makes it absorb more flavor
03 -
  • A cast iron skillet holds heat beautifully and gives you that even, restaurant style golden crust
  • Let the sandwiches rest for 2 minutes after grilling so the cheese sets and doesnt run everywhere when you slice
