GOURMET CHICKEN SANDWICH



Gourmet Chicken Sandwich image

Sauteed chicken breasts topped with a mayonnaise/mustard/rosemary spread and graced by 2 slices of garlic rosemary focaccia bread. These sandwiches are great when you want a quick supper, but not something from the freezer. They remind me of an expensive sandwich from an upscale deli. The spread and the chicken can be made in advance, and the chicken can be eaten hot or cold.

GOURMET CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH

This is an adult version of a childhood favourite. As kids, we had lots of chicken and sweetcorn sandwiches and I wanted to upgrade the flavor profile of the mixture as I got more experimental with my cooking. I have added yoghurt to the recipie so its healthier than just mayo alone! It's got the sweet and tart of cranberries...

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 16

CHICKEN PREP
1 large chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1 c chicken stock to boil chicken breast in.
1 Tbsp garlic paste
1 Tbsp ginger paste
1 pinch salt and pepper or soy sauce
1 Tbsp oil
MIXTURE PREP
1 c yogurt, plain and nonfat (i also use greek yoghurt)
1/3 c mayonnaise, fat-free
1 large fresh ripe avacado
1 bunch spring onions
1 pkg dried cranberries
1 Tbsp cracked black peppercorns
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. First, clean chicken breast and remove excess fat and bits.
  • 2. Then, cut into small pieces. About 1 inch cubes.
  • 3. Marinate chicken cubes with garlic and ginger paste, and salt and pepper (or soy sauce.) I use soy sauce when I can because I feel it adds more depth to the flavor.
  • 4. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a saucepan over the stove on medium heat.
  • 5. Add the stock to the pan.
  • 6. Next add the marinated chicken cubes.
  • 7. Boil the chicken in the stock until the chicken is fully cooked through. I like to start breaking apart the chicken at this stage. It helps in two ways: first it tells me that the chicken is cooked; and second, it give me a head start in the shredding process.
  • 8. Take the pan off the heat and begin to shred the chicken using two forks. Keep any remaining liquid in the pan as you will need for your mixture.
  • 9. Leave chicken to cool in its own juices.
  • 10. In a seperate mixing bowl, add yoghurt and mayo and mix.
  • 11. Chop up the spring onions and the avacado.
  • 12. Add chopped avacado and spring onions ot the mixing bowl. I always throw in the pit of the avacado in the mixture to keep the chopped avacado from turning brown.
  • 13. Add dried cranberries and mix.
  • 14. Finally add the room temperature shredded chicken along with any residual juices from the saucepan. Should not be that much, about a tablespoon or so.
  • 15. Mix it all up and finally add cracked black peppercorns, salt, and sugar to taste!
