In a small mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well blended.
Lay out the slices of bread on a flat surface. Spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly onto one side of each slice.
Place a slice of Swiss cheese on two of the bread slices, on the side with the mayonnaise mixture.
Top the cheese with one piece of cooked chicken breast on each sandwich. If the chicken is too thick, you can slice it in half horizontally.
Add another slice of Swiss cheese on top of the chicken.
Place the remaining bread slices on top, mayonnaise side down, to close the sandwiches.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. While it heats, spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the top side of each sandwich.
Place the sandwiches butter-side down in the skillet. Spread the remaining butter on the unbuttered sides that are now facing up.
Cook the sandwiches for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, allow them to cool slightly, then cut them in half if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Grilled Swiss Cheese and Chicken Sandwiches!
