Ingredients

• 4 tbsp. butter or margarine, softened
• 1 tbsp. prepared mustard
• 8 slices firm-textured white bread
• 8 slices roast chicken
• 8 slices swiss cheese
• 3 eggs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/4 tsp. salt

Preparation

Step 1

Blend 2 tbsp. butter and the mustard in a small bowl until smooth. Spread on 4 slices of bread. Alternate slices of chicken and cheese on bread. Top with remaining 4 slices of bread.

Combine eggs, milk, and salt in a shallow bowl; mix with a fork until well blended. Heat remaining 2 tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Dip both sides of the sandwiches into egg mixture with a large spatula, letting excess drip back into bowl. Add sandwiches to skillet; fry until golden, about 2 minutes per side.
