Raspberry Chicken Sandwiches - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup chili sauce
    3/4 cup raspberry preserves
    2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    6 boneless chicken breasts
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    24 slices French bread
    1/2 cup olive oil
    12 slices muenster cheese, halved
    shredded lettuce
    12 slices tomatoes
Preparation
    Combine the chili sauce, preserves, vinegar and mustard in a saucepan; bring to a boil.
    Reduce the heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
    Set aside 1 c of the sauce for drizzling on the sandwich.
    Flatten the breasts to 1/4\" thick and cut in half widthwise.
    Place in a resealable plastic bag; add 2 T oil, salt and pepper.
    Turn the sealed bag to coat.
    Grill the chicken over medium heat until the juices run clear (about 5-7 minutes per side), basting often with the remaining sauce.
    Remove the chicken from the grill and keep it warm.
    Using the 1/2 c of oil, brush on both sides of each piece of bread.
    Grill until lightly browned on one side.
    Turn the bread over and top each slice with a piece of cheese.
    Grill until the bottom of the bread is lightly toasted and cheese is slightly melted.
    To make each sandwich, top half of the slices of bread with a piece of chicken, lettuce, tomato and drizzle on some of the 1 c raspberry sauce.
    Top with the remaining slices of bread.
