Kings Club Sandwich Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN CLUB SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. To flatten each chicken breast, place between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or waxed paper. Working from center, gently pound chicken with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick; remove wrap.
• When grill is heated, carefully oil grill rack. Place chicken on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill over medium coals; cover grill. Cook 6 to 8 minutes, turning once, until chicken is no longer pink in center. During last 5 minutes of cooking time, heat bacon on grill, turning once, until hot. If desired, during last 3 minutes of cooking time, toast kaiser roll pieces, cut side down, on grill.
• Spread cut sides of roll pieces with mayonnaise. Cut each chicken breast into 2 pieces. For each sandwich, on bottom section of roll, place 2 chicken pieces, overlapping if necessary. Top with lettuce leaf, tomato slice and middle section of roll. Place 2 Canadian bacon slices on top of middle roll section. Top with lettuce leaf and top section of roll. Press each sandwich slightly; spear each with 2 long toothpicks. Cut sandwiches in half between toothpicks.

THE PLAYA'S CLUB

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lay out the pancetta onto an ungreased baking sheet. Place in the oven and cook the pancetta until extra crispy, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• For the tomato-arugula pesto: In a dry skillet over medium heat, lightly toast the pine nuts until slightly golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool.
• In a food processor, add the toasted pine nuts, arugula, basil, cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, lemon juice and garlic. Pulse until just combined. Slowly stream in the olive oil until the pesto has a nice rustic consistency, about 10 seconds. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the sandwich build: On the bottom of a slice of challah, schmear a bit of mayo and then top with some of the turkey slices and a piece of lettuce. Schmear pesto on both sides of the second slice of challah and place it on top of the lettuce, and then more turkey and then some of the pancetta. Schmear mayo on the third challah slice and top off the sandwich. Use a toothpick to skewer the layers together. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
