An impromptu picnic inspired me to put together this dressed-up chicken salad sandwich. The sauce gives leftover poultry a scrumptious punch. An instant summertime favorite, these sandwiches have become a mainstay at our house. Ingredients:
1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast |
1/2 cup barbecue sauce |
1 cup mayonnaise |
1/2 cup finely chopped onion |
1/2 cup chopped celery |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
8 kaiser rolls, split |
8 tomato slices |
8 lettuce leaves |
Directions:
1. Place the chicken in a large resealable plastic bag; add barbecue sauce. Seal the bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate overnight. 2. Grill chicken, covered, over medium-hot heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Cool; cover and refrigerate chicken until chilled. 3. Chop chicken; place in a large bowl. Stir in the mayonnaise, onion, celery, salt and pepper flakes. Serve on rolls with tomato and lettuce. Yield: 8 servings. |
