Steps

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place the bread on a baking tray and spread the chicken mixture evenly on top.
  4. Generously sprinkle cheese over the chicken.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a minute.
  7. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, slice, and enjoy!

Tips for Cheesy Chicken Toast

  • A sturdy, thick-cut slice holds the topping better than thin sandwich bread.
  • The toast is ready when the cheese is bubbling and the bread edges look crisp; check early if your bread is thin.
  • Use a small baking tray or oven-safe dish that keeps the slice level so the topping stays in place.

Storage

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in a covered container and keep for 3–4 days. Reheat until steaming hot; the bread may soften after storage.
