Chicken Sandwich

17/11/2023

I can provide you with a recipe for a delicious chicken sandwich. If you like, I can add an Italian twist to the original recipe. Here is the recipe for an Italian chicken sandwich:

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 4 slices of country-style bread or sourdough
  • 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise (optional or replaceable with tuna sauce for a more Italian touch)
  • 1 ripe tomato
  • A few leaves of lettuce
  • Slices of mozzarella or smoked provola cheese
  • Dried oregano
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Balsamic vinegar (optional)

Preparation

  1. Start by preparing the chicken. If you have whole chicken breasts, lightly pound them with a meat mallet to an even thickness. This will allow for faster and more even cooking.
  2. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and a pinch of oregano. Heat a drizzle of oil in a skillet (preferably non-stick) and cook the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked internally.
  3. Meanwhile, slice the tomato and shred the lettuce.
  4. If you prefer warm bread, you can toast the bread slices.
  5. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one slice of bread (or use tuna sauce), add one or two slices of tomato, and then a handful of lettuce.
  6. When the chicken is cooked, slice it or place it whole on the bread.
  7. Add slices of mozzarella or provola on top of the hot chicken to allow the cheese to melt slightly.
  8. Top with the other slice of bread. If desired, you can drizzle a few drops of balsamic vinegar for a tangy touch.
  9. Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately.

Curiosity

The chicken sandwich is a practical and tasty option for a quick meal. The addition of mozzarella or smoked provola and dried oregano turns the classic sandwich into a dish with a clear Italian imprint.
