Ingredients 

1 Gold'n Plump® Deli Rotisserie Chicken, meat removed and coarsely chopped (about 4 cups)
1-1/2 cups purchased corn salsa*
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
12 slices Texas toast bread
1/4 cup softened butter

Instructions 

Heat griddle over medium heat.

Stir together chicken, salsa, and Cheddar cheese. Place 1 cup of the chicken mixture on 6 slices of bread, gently pressing. Butter one side of the remaining bread slices and place the unbuttered side on top of the chicken mix.

Place sandwiches, buttered side down on hot griddle. Butter top of each sandwich. Cook 3 to 4 minutes per side or until sandwich is golden brown and filling is hot.

Tips 

*If corn salsa is not available, stir 1/2 cup frozen corn into 1 cup of your favorite salsa. The corn will thaw while the sandwich is cooking.

1 Gold'n Plump Deli Rotisserie Chicken yields about 4 cups shredded, sliced, or coarsely chopped chicken, skin and bones removed.
