Maple-Black Pepper Chicken and Camembert Melt with Matchstick Fries

Chef Michael Voltaggio created this recipe for the ultimate chicken and cheese sandwich. “We all loved melted cheese sandwiches,” he says. “When you incorporate premium ingredients like Camembert, it elevates a simple chicken sandwich to something special.” Mostarda, an Italian condiment that combines fruit with mustard and spices, adds a lively kick.
