Tips:

For the perfect sandwich, use a thick, crusty bread that can hold up to the fillings. A sourdough or baguette is a great option.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. Mozzarella is a classic, but cheddar, provolone, or Gouda would also be delicious.
If you don't have roasted potatoes on hand, you can use any other roasted vegetable, such as zucchini, eggplant, or bell peppers.
To make the sandwiches ahead of time, assemble them and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
When you're ready to serve, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the sandwiches for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

These chicken, onion, and mozzarella sandwiches are a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. They're also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The roasted potatoes add a delicious and hearty touch, and the melted mozzarella cheese makes these sandwiches irresistible. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying meal, give these sandwiches a try. You won't be disappointed!
