Summertime Chicken Sandwich on French Bread
  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, 2 teaspoons dill, and 2 tablespoons garlic; set aside.

  2. 2

    Season the chicken with the remaining garlic and dill.

  3. 3

    Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until it is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the pan.

  4. 4

    Butter one side of each bread slice with the remaining butter. Toast the buttered bread in the skillet until golden, about 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Remove the bread from the skillet. Spread half of the cream cheese mixture on the unbuttered sides of 2 bread slices, then top each with lettuce, tomato slices, a chicken breast, and the remaining bread.
