  • ⅓ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

For Serving:

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400F for toasting the buns.
  2. Dump the ground chicken into a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Crumble the ground chicken well as it cooks.

  7. Place the baking sheet in the oven and toast the buns for 5 minutes.
  8. Once the buns are toasted, spoon the sloppy joe mixture onto the bottom buns. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sloppy joe mixture and then cover with the top buns.
  9. Serve and enjoy!
