Equipment
- 1 Mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 1 and ¼ cup shredded chicken
- 6-8 sandwich bread slices or burger buns
For creamy mayonnaise filling
- ½ cup Mayonnaise (Veg or Egg both works fine)
- ¼ cup full fat Yogurt thick consistency
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder or fresh garlic cloves (2 in number)
- ½ teaspoon Black pepper
- Salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard (skip if you don't have)
- 2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 stalk of celery, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoon finely chopped green onions green part only
- 1 tablespoon coriander leaves or dill/Parsley, finely chopped
- ½ teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, yogurt, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, salt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, celery, green onions, and coriander leaves. Mix well.
- Add cooked, shredded chicken and mix until well combined. Rest for a few minutes.
- Remove the crust from the bread slices. Spread the chicken mayo filling evenly. Cover with another bread slice.
- Slice, and serve immediately. Serve cold or grill if you prefer it warm and crispy.
Notes
- You can use homemade shredded chicken or leftover grilled chicken for this sandwich.
- Always use completely cooled shredded chicken. Warm chicken makes the mayo watery.
- Do not add too much mayonnaise. Use just enough to bind the filling.
- Finely chop celery and green onions. This gives a nice, balanced texture.
- If serving as a cold sandwich, consume it within 2 hours for the best taste.
- Since this is a mayonnaise-based sandwich, avoid storing it for long hours at room temperature.
- You can prepare the chicken in advance, but always assemble the sandwich fresh for best results.
- Paprika adds only a mild flavour. Do not overdo it or make it too spicy.
