We particularly liked this sandwich on slipper-shaped ciabatta bread, although any type of soft Italian bread is suitable. Ingredients:
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon sour cream |
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves |
1 teaspoon curry powder |
1/2 firm-ripe mango |
2 skinless boneless chicken breast halves (about 3/4 pound total) |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
a 7-inch length soft italian bread such as ciabatta |
4 small soft-leafed lettuce leaves |
Directions:
1. In a bowl stir together mayonnaise, sour cream, cilantro, curry powder, and salt and pepper to taste until combined well. Peel mango and thinly slice lengthwise.
2. Pat chicken dry and season with salt and pepper. In a 9-inch nonstick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté chicken 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes. Diagonally slice chicken and season with salt and pepper.
3. Horizontally halve bread with a serrated knife and spread cut sides with mayonnaise mixture. On 1 bread half stack lettuce, chicken, and mango and top with remaining bread half, gently pressing together. Cut sandwich in half.
