GOURMET CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH

Steps:

• 1. First, clean chicken breast and remove excess fat and bits.
• 2. Then, cut into small pieces. About 1 inch cubes.
• 3. Marinate chicken cubes with garlic and ginger paste, and salt and pepper (or soy sauce.) I use soy sauce when I can because I feel it adds more depth to the flavor.
• 4. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a saucepan over the stove on medium heat.
• 5. Add the stock to the pan.
• 6. Next add the marinated chicken cubes.
• 7. Boil the chicken in the stock until the chicken is fully cooked through. I like to start breaking apart the chicken at this stage. It helps in two ways: first it tells me that the chicken is cooked; and second, it give me a head start in the shredding process.
• 8. Take the pan off the heat and begin to shred the chicken using two forks. Keep any remaining liquid in the pan as you will need for your mixture.
• 9. Leave chicken to cool in its own juices.
• 10. In a seperate mixing bowl, add yoghurt and mayo and mix.
• 11. Chop up the spring onions and the avacado.
• 12. Add chopped avacado and spring onions ot the mixing bowl. I always throw in the pit of the avacado in the mixture to keep the chopped avacado from turning brown.
• 13. Add dried cranberries and mix.
• 14. Finally add the room temperature shredded chicken along with any residual juices from the saucepan. Should not be that much, about a tablespoon or so.
• 15. Mix it all up and finally add cracked black peppercorns, salt, and sugar to taste!

GABBY CRABBY SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix crab, mayonnaise, onion, salt and lemon juice.
• Place a tomato slice on each muffin half.
• Arrange crab salad on top of tomato dividing equally among sandwiches.
• Top each with a slice of mozzarella.
• Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is slightly browned.
• Cooks Note: Due to personal taste, I often decrease the amount of mayonnaise so that the salad isn't as wet.
