Cooking Steps
- Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch wedges.
- Melt garlic spread in a small microwavable bowl or a small pan over low heat.
- Add potatoes to a parchment-lined baking sheet. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 baking sheets.) Drizzle with half the melted garlic spread, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden-brown, 25-28 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, roast in the middle and bottom of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
- Meanwhile, thinly slice mushrooms.
- Thinly slice chives.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When the pan is hot, add remaining garlic spread, then mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until softened, 5-6 min. Season with pepper.
- Remove the pan from heat. Transfer to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
- Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Add mayo and half the chives to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
- Reheat the same pan over medium.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken.
- Pan-fry on one side until golden, 6-7 min. Flip, then cover and continue cooking, until cooked through, 6-7 min.**
- Transfer to a cutting board to rest.
- Carefully wipe the pan clean.
- Reheat the same pan (from step 2) over medium. When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then onions.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2-3 min.
- Add balsamic glaze, mustard, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and 2 tsp (4 tsp) sugar.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until some liquid has evaporated and onions are jammy, 3-4 min. (TIP: Use a fork to help break down onions!) Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, halve ciabatta rolls. Arrange on another parchment-lined baking sheet, cut-side up.
- Toast in the top of the oven until golden-brown, 3-4 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on them so they don't burn!)

- Spread balsamic onions over rolls. Top with mushrooms, chicken and cheese. Return to the top of oven and bake until cheese melts, 5-6 min.
