Pret-A-Manger Chicken Caesar Sandwich
Why I Love This Recipe
When I lived in England, I practically lived off of this sandwich, and I finally found the recipe at pret.com.
Ingredients You'll Need
2 thick slices unbuttered granary (wheat) bread
1/2 marinaded chicken breast (recipe below) - optional
Generous blob caesar dressing (recipe below)
4 slices tomato
handful mixed leaves
sea salt & coarse ground black pepper
Dressing:
2 heaping TBSP mayo
3 salted anchovies, finely chopped
1 TBSP grated parmesan cheese
2 tsp lemon juice
(OR - just buy a good caesar dressing at the store)
Marinade:
A few drops Angostura bitters
4 crushed juniper berries
generous splash white wine
2 sprigs thyme
1 tsp cider vinegar
2 fresh bay leaves
salt & pepper
Directions
Mix together - put in the fridge with chicken to marinade for an hour. Then, cook the chicken. Placing the chicken & marinade in a pan, covering chicken with water, and letting it gentle boil for 10 minutes works well.
DIRECTIONS:
- whisk together the dressing ingredients
- Tear the chicken breasts into small strips and mix it with the dressing
- Spread the chicken salad mixture on bread
- Top with the tomatoes and mixed greens
- Season with sea salt
- cover with top slice of bread and cut diagonally down the center.
