Nestle this unique chicken salad in a baguette with thin apple slices and shaved Parmesan. Use a vegetable peeler to shave off pieces from a block of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon chopped shallots

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon tarragon vinegar

1/2 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise

1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard

1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon

2 cups chopped cooked chicken breast

1 (8.5-ounce) loaf french bread baguette, cut diagonally into 4 equal pieces

4 red leaf lettuce leaves

1 medium granny smith apple, cored and thinly sliced

12 shaved pieces parmigiano-reggiano cheese (about 0.4 ounces)

Directions:

1. Combine shallots and tarragon vinegar in a small bowl; let stand 10 minutes. Add mayonnaise, mustard, and tarragon; stir well to combine. Reserve 3 tablespoons mayonnaise mixture. Add chicken to remaining mayonnaise mixture; stir well.
2. Spread about 2 teaspoons reserved mayonnaise mixture on bottom half of each baguette portion. Top each with 1 lettuce leaf. Divide apple slices and shaved cheese evenly among sandwiches. Top each sandwich evenly with 1/2 cup chicken salad and remaining bread half. Chill until ready to serve.
