Leftover Chicken Sandwich

Leftover Chicken Sandwich served on a bed of rocket salad, a quick and easy way of using up any rotisserie or leftover roast chicken you might have from your Sunday roast. The chicken sandwich filling has a lovely crunch coming from the pickled gherkin and spring onions, while the mayo and sour cream make it creamy and refreshing. Add a pinch of hot paprika for a spicy kick, and you have a delicious sandwich to pop in your lunch box, picnic basket or bring to an outdoor party.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups leftover chicken
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 celery stalk
  • 1 spring onion
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill
  • 1 pickled gherkin
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black peppper
  • ½ teaspoon hot paprika
  • 1 cup Rocket salad (arugula)
  • bread slices

Instructions

  1. Shred or cut the cooked chicken into small cubes and add them to a large bowl together with the finely chopped celery, gherkin, spring onion and dill.
  2. Add the sour cream and mayo, season with salt, pepper and paprika, and mix well to combine all the ingredients.
  3. Arrange rocket salad on a slice of bread, add the chicken salad filling, and top with another slice of bread.

Notes

  • You can make the chicken salad filling the night ahead and refrigerate, so you can just assemble the sandwiches in the morning, made too far ahead the sandwiches might get a bit soggy otherwise.
  • If you don't have any leftover chicken, you can also grill or poach a chicken breast, leave it to cool completely, then follow the same steps.
