Open Faced Ranch Chicken Sandwich

This was a really simple recipe that was really good.  Of course, we halved it because there is just two of us.  I think there is a lot of room to "personalize" this recipe.  For example, the recipe calls for Ranch dressing, but we used garlic ranch dressing instead.  They have lots of different flavors of ranch these days and you could use whatever one you want to spice up this recipe.  Personally, I like Caesar dressing a lot better than Ranch, so maybe we'll try that next time.  Also, you could use different types of cheese.  You could add different toppings as well--like Bacon Bits.  Then it would be like a Chicken Bacon Ranch sub from Subway.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken, cooked and shredded
  • 2 whole green onions, sliced
  • 2/3 cups Ranch Dressing (more or less to taste)
  • 1/2 whole loaf of French Bread (cut a whole loaf in half lengthwise and just use one half)
  • 2 whole Roma tomatoes--sliced
  • 1 cup grated mozzarella or monterey jack cheese
Directions: Preheat broiler, or bring oven to 400F.  In a medium bowl, combine chicken, green onions, and enough ranch dressing to make a chicken salad (some people like very little, others prefer more dressing).  Scoop and spread onto bread.  Top with tomato slices and cheese.  Broil just until cheese is bubbly and golden.  Cut into slices and serve.
