This is a chicken salad with a garlic cream sauce that I got from a friend in Cornwall. It's really tasty. Something like the gryro sandwiches, in which you can use pork or steak for the sandwiches as well. Just pour the sauce over the pork or steak instead of mixing it with the chicken. For the steak you could add crumbled blue cheese if you so desire. Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1 teaspoon ground coriander |
1 tablespoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
1 teaspoon turmeric |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne |
1 teaspoon ginger |
1 teaspoon pepper |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 stalk finely chopped celery |
1/2 small onion, finely chopped |
1 teaspoon parsley |
1/2 thyme |
1/2 teaspoon chives |
1/4 teaspoon chopped garlic |
black pepper |
3 tablespoons mayonnaise (or more) |
3 tablespoons sour cream (or more) |
1/4 teaspoon mustard (or more) |
6 pita bread or 6 pita pockets |
Directions:
1. Simmer the chicken breasts in chicken broth with the spices.
2. Drain and let cool.
3. I shredded them with a fork, but you could chop them up too.
4. I finely chopped up one stalk of celery, and 1/2 a small onion.
5. In a bowl i mixed 1 tsp parsley, 1/2 thyme, 1/2 tsp chives, 1/4 tsp garlic, and some black pepper to taste.
6. I add about 3 tbs mayonnaise, 1/4 tsp (or more) mustard, and then i added 3 tbs sour cream.
7. You can use more if you prefer, depends on your taste.
8. Mix together thoroughly, and add to the veggies and chicken.
9. Mix well and let marinate for at least 4 hours.
10. Serve them on pita bread, or in pita pockets.
11. The pockets work better.
12. I also prefer to use whole wheat pitas.
