INFO & TIPS

I usually boil the chicken with salt, pepper, a clove of garlic, 1 chopped onion (small) and bayleaf. Once the chicken is cooked, separate the stock and pieces. I freeze the stock to use it later for soup or pasta.

You can prepare the filling one day in advance and keep in the fridge. If you want to serve it for small kids, you can substitute green chili with pepper powder.

Cheese slices - I used Gouda cheese, but you can use any cheese (which melts) of your preference like Swiss, Mozzarella, Cheddar etc; I was feeling a bit indulgent and used 2 cheese slices per sandwich, but you can make it with just one slice too.
