Ingredients
Chicken
- 500g chicken breast
- 1 tbsp Blow My Coals
Dressing
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp Dude Ranch
- Juice of half a lemon
- 1 tsp Blow My Coals
- 3 stalks celery
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley or chives
- 1/4 tsp white pepper
Assembly
- 1 loaf sliced bread
- Soft butter
Directions
- To prepare the chicken add the breasts to a pot and cover with water, add the blow my coals.
- Bring to a boil and once boiling reduce heat to low and simmer on low for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes remove the chicken from the poaching liquid and either shred with a fork or a great hack is as the chicken to a stand mix and beat or use a hand beater and shred the chicken. Set aside to cool a bit.
- To prepare the dressing add the mayo, sour cream, lemon juice, blow my coals, dude ranch and white pepper to a bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Take the celery and very finely dice if, as fine as you can.
- Add the chopped parsley and celery to the dressing, then add the shredded chicken and mix through.
- If time allows cover the chicken salad and chill in the fridge for atleast 30 minutes to let the flavours develop.
- To make the sandwiches spread the bread with soft butter and then take 2 spoonfuls of the chicken mix and spread to the edges of the bread. Top with another butter sliced and cut into 1/4s or finger sandwiches. Alternatively you can cut the crusts off one slice of bread and you can roll in the same way you roll an asparagus roll.
- If making sandwiches in advance make sure you cover tightly with gladwrap so they don’t dry out.
