Notes

• For an extra kick, you can add more hot sauce to the dressing.
• Feel free to swap out the cheddar for another cheese like Swiss or provolone for different flavors.
• If you prefer grilled chicken, you can grill the chicken fillets instead of pan-frying them.
• Enjoy your flavorful Cajun Chicken Club Sandwich!
