Sandwich
- Preheat the griddle or skillet over medium heat.
- Spread a generous amount of the prepared chipotle sauce on each bread slice.

- Add a small pat of butter to the preheated skillet and allow it to melt.

- If needed to help the cheese melt, add a piece of aluminum foil over the sandwiches as they cook.
- When the sandwiches are golden on both sides, remove the sandwiches from the skillet and serve warm.
