3. Mix Chicken and Sauce: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
4. Assemble the Sandwich: Place one slice of bread in the skillet. On top of this slice, add half of the mozzarella, followed by the chicken mixture. Sprinkle the Parmesan on top, then finish with the remaining mozzarella.
