Note

For best results, ensure the chicken is thoroughly shredded or chopped finely so it spreads easily onto the bread.

You can substitute Miracle Whip with mayonnaise if preferred, though the flavor will be slightly less sweet.

Rye or pumpernickel bread holds up well to the moisture of the filling, but white or whole wheat bread works too.

Keep a close eye on the sandwiches while broiling, as the cheese and bread can burn quickly.

These sandwiches are best served fresh and hot. They do not store well after broiling due to the texture of the bread.

Add a pinch of paprika or cayenne to the mixture for extra heat if you like spicy food.
