Boring Chicken Sandwitch
This was an experiment for making something different this week, the original idea was to make a club sandwich, but we ended up with the result you see above. The boring chicken sandwich was saved by the creamy sauce we added to it. This is a simple snack that you can make, check out the ingredients and method below.
Ingredients (4 sandwitches)
- 400g of chicken breasts sliced into small strips
- 1 medium sized onion minced finely
- 1 red capsicum sliced into thin strips
- 2 garlic clovers
- 2 green chillies
- Nandos crushed spices mix
- butter 1.5 tbsp
- half a mug of milk
- 1.5 tbsp of flour
- salt and pepper
- brown toasted bread
Method
- In a small pot over low heat melt the butter.
- Add the flour immediatly after all the butter melts – make sure to stir the mix while adding.
- Add the milk gradually while stirring to ensure that the mix blends properly.
- Add half a mug of water to mix and keep on stirring.
- Add salt and pepper and stir.
- keep stirring. (Now you understand why this is boring) Stir from time to time for a period of 10 minutes. You should get a thick white cream. You can adjust the viscosity of the cream by adding more water. Once done leave covered on the side.
- Crush the garlic clovers with the chillies and the Nandos spices mix.
- Melt some butter on a fraying pan.
- Fry the minced onion and capsicum slices on the pan for four minutes.
- Add the chicken to the mix and fry while stirring until the chicken turns white.
- Add the crushed spices mix with one tbsp of vinegar to the chicken mix on the pan.
- Add half a mug of water, cover the pan and leave for 5 minutes.
- Remove the cover and wait for all the water to evaporate before adding the cream we made at the beginning.
- Stir the mix until cream is absorbed by the chicken and the mix is creamy.
- Take out and serve with toast as sandwitches.
