BBQ Chicken and Cheddar Sandwiches

I don't even need to explain why I chose to make this recipe.  If you don't think it sounds good, you're crazy.  When I saw the picture, it looked like my BBQ chicken sandwiches on steriods.  Mmm.  Here's the recipe:


Ingredients:

Serves: 4
Yield:

4
sandwic ...
Units: US | Metric

Directions:

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 400.
  2. 2
    Fry bacon until crisp. Transfer to paper-lined plate and pour all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat out of pan.
  3. 3
    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.
  4. 4
    Cover, reduce heat to medium and simmer until chicken is cooked through and sauce is slightly thickened, about 8 minutes.
  5. 5
    Remove chicken from pan and cut into bite-sized pieces. Arrange onion rolls cut side up on a baking sheet.
  6. 6
    Divide chicken among bottom halves of rolls. Top with sauce, cheese, and bacon.
  7. 7
    Bake open-faced sandwiches until cheese melts and rolls are golden brown, about 4 minutes. Top each sandwich with toasted roll top.




So this looks like it could cause a heart attack, and usually foods that look like they could cause a heart attack at least taste like they could cause a heart attack... right?  Not this one!  Lame!  All that cheese, bacon, and BBQ sauce and for some reason the one thing it lacked was FLAVOR!  Weird.  I couldn't figure out why it didn't taste absolutely amazingly flavorfully delicious and my husband said, "You know how when you mix together a bunch of colors it just turns brown?  Well, maybe there's just too much flavor and all the flavors got canceled out."  Haha, maybe.  Or maybe I'm just not good at making these.  I might eventually try again, but it'll be a while.  Too disappointing.  Not a horrible recipe, but so not worth all the fat.
