Description
We all love a good sandwich, don't we? Here the way to use up leftover roast chicken with and avocado mayo and tangy red onions. For a weekend treat, serve with a nice cold beer if wish.
Ingredients
2 slices of bread, white farmhouse - lightly toasted
1 handful of roast chicken, leftover - or 1 small poached chicken breast, shredded
2 egg yolks, medium
1 avocado, large and very ripe, mashed until smooth
Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
Red onion, slices
1 handful of rocket, small
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
1. Make the mayonnaise with a pestle and mortar by rapidly mixing the mashed avocado gradually into the egg yolks. Season to taste with sea salt and lemon juice. Fold in the cold chicken.
2. Layer the rocket onto the toasted bread first, then the chicken avocado mayo, followed by a good grind of black pepper before layering on as many onion slices as you think you can manage, it depends on how much tang you like! To make this a bit more special as a weekend lunch at home, rather than an office sandwich bag this is actually rather good with a cold beer.
Enjoy!
