I see you live in an apartment. So I am going to give you some advice. Put the cheese on the chicken about thirty seconds before you pull it out of the pan. Then it's nice and melty.
This looks awesome. Funny. In Quebec a hot chicken sandwich is chicken on white bread covered in peas and gravy. You gotta try it to "get it" but it's fucking delectable.
This is my secret fried chicken dredge and extra hot nashville style coating. Kirkland brand cheddar cheese, fat bread and butter pickles, home made comeback sauce and zesty red cabbage slaw. On a potato roll.
