1-First off, start by draining the canned chicken thoroughly and placing it in a large mixing bowl. Lightly break it up with a fork to make it easier to mix. This step ensures your sandwiches aren’t watery, which I learned the hard way on my first try!

2-Next, stir in 3/4 cup of mayonnaise adjust it to your taste for creaminess and add the homemade seasoning blend. Then, mix in the diced tomato, chopped cilantro, and shredded cheddar cheese until everything is well combined. If you want a kick, go ahead and add hot chili sauce, but remember to divide the mixture if some prefer it mild.

3-Once mixed, spread the chicken mixture generously over the sliced bread. Place the assembled sandwiches uncovered on a cookie sheet and bake at 350˚F for 8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is nicely toasted. Finally, garnish with fresh cilantro and diced tomato if you’re feeling fancy, and serve them up hot your family will thank you!
