Sometimes you just need a little comfort food.
In the form of a sandwich.
Marry Me Chicken got its name after whoever developed it back in the day claimed it was so good they could marry it.
But they didn’t know the potential it had squished between toasted bread slices with sautéed onion and a sprinkling of chives.
Of course, if you aren’t the sandwich type, you can always serve this over rice, pasta or otherwise.
