Bbq Chicken And Cheddar Sandwiches - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 slices bacon, halved crosswise
3 -4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 cup barbecue sauce, your favorite
1/4 cup water
4 large onion rolls, split
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400.
Fry bacon until crisp. Transfer to paper-lined plate and pour all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat out of pan.
Pat chicken dry and season with salt and pepper. Cook chicken in bacon fat until browned on one side, about 4 minutes. Flip chicken and add BBQ sauce and water.
Cover, reduce heat to medium and simmer until chicken is cooked through and sauce is slightly thickened, about 8 minutes.
Remove chicken from pan and cut into bite-sized pieces. Arrange onion rolls cut side up on a baking sheet.
Divide chicken among bottom halves of rolls. Top with sauce, cheese, and bacon.
Bake open-faced sandwiches until cheese melts and rolls are golden brown, about 4 minutes. Top each sandwich with toasted roll top.
