Chicken sandwiches tips:

• Texture: The most important for a good chicken sandwich is the texture. It should be soft and moist. To achieve this result, you should cut very well the chicken. We encourage you to use your stand mixer. If you do not have stand mixer, use a knife and be patient.

• • Mayonnaise + sour cream + yogurt sauce – use mayo for flavor and sour cream and yogurt to lighten up the sauce.

  Ingredients in Chicken Sandwich

  Chicken – Buy a whole chicken. Cut. Reserve the legs to bake during the week for quick dinner. Boil the rest in plenty of water with added onion, carrot, and herbs to get delicious broth. One boiled, use halve the breasts to make a delicious chicken soup and the rest for chicken sandwich filling. If you have a leftover from roasted chicken – use it.

Chicken breast – best to use a whole chicken so you get a good white meat.

The bread – The traditional bread is soft white sandwich bread. We encourage you to use wholegrain home made for better nutrition. Just cut-out the crust.
