Chicken Aioli Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Roast the red pepper: Slice it in half and seed it, then place down on a foil lined baking sheet with the outside of the pepper up. Put under a broiler at 500 degrees for 8 minutes or until black charred and blistery.
• Remove pepper from oven and wrap the foil that lined the baking sheet all around the pepper so that no steam can escape. Let it steam for about 10 minutes (out of the oven), this will help soften it and allow for easier peeling. After 10 minutes remove foil and peel the charred skin off the pepper and slice into strips.
• While the pepper is broiling, heat oil in a saute pan, and once heated, add the butter. Then dash some garlic powder in the pan and stir.
• Pound chicken breasts to about 1/2 inch of thickness and rub with salt and pepper.
• Add chicken to saute pan once butter is melted. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
• After pepper comes out of broiler, leave it on and place bread slices on a baking sheet. Broil until just crispy and a nice light brown color emerges. Then flip the bread, place the manchego cheese on half the slices, and put back under the broiler so the cheese melts and the other side of the bread gets toasty. Each side should only be a minute or two.
• Make the garlic aioli by whisking all of the ingredients for it in a small bowl.
• Spread garlic aioli on the non cheesed bread slices.
• When chicken is cooked through, slice and place on the bread with the cheese. Top with slices of roasted red pepper and cover with other bread slice.

Steps:

• Working with one chicken breast half at a time, place it between 2 sheets of waxed paper and, using a meat pounder, pound to an even thickness of 3/4" thick. Season on both sides with salt and pepper. Place in a nonreactive dish large enough to hold them in a single layer. Add the lemon juice, olive oil and thyme. Turn the breasts over several times to coat. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let marinate at room temperature for 1 hour or refrigerate overnight.
• To make aioli, preheat a broiler (grill). Set the bell pepper on a baking sheet and place in the broiler about 6inches from the heat source. Broil (grill) turning with tongs, until skin is blistered and charred black on all sides, about 15 minute Enclose the pepper in a paper bag and let cool completely.
• If broiling the chicken, leave the broiler on. If grilling the chicken, prepare a charcoal or gas grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat. Oil the grill rack.
• Remove the stem from the pepper and discard. Slit the pepper open, then remove and discard seeds and ribs. Remove the blackened skin with a small knife or your fingers. Coarsely chop the pepper. In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted pepper, egg yolk, garlic, lemon juice, mustard, tomato paste, parsley, salt and pepper. Process until pureed. With the motor running, add the olive oil drop by drop. As the mixture begins to emulsify, add the oil in a slow, steady stream. Continue to process until the aioli is thick and has the consistency of mayonnaise. The aioli can be made a day ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
• By Broiler: Remove chicken breasts from the marinade and arrange in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil until lightly browned, 3-5 minutes. Turn and broil until lightly browned on the second sides and firm to the touch, 3-5 minute Transfer to a plate. Place the bread on the baking sheet and toast, turning once, until golden, 3-5 minutes total.
• By Grill: Remove chicken breasts from the marinade and place over the hottest part of the fire or directly over the heat elements and grill until lightly browned, 3-5 minute Turn and grill until lightly browned on the second sides and firm to the touch, 3-5 minute Transfer to a plate. Place the bread slices on the grill rack and toast, turning once, until golden, about 2 min total.
• Spread the bread slices with aioli. Place the chicken breasts on four of the slices. Put the remaining slices on top. Halve the sandwiches and serve at once.

Steps:

• Add the hot sauce, Worcestershire, molasses, garlic, onions and tomato sauce to a slow cooker and stir to mix the ingredients together.
• Sprinkle the chicken breasts liberally with salt and pepper and add to the slow cooker, coating evenly with the sauce. Cover and cook on low until the chicken is tender, 4 to 6 hours. Transfer the cooked chicken to a large bowl and shred using 2 forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and toss to coat with the sauce.
• Place 4 to 6 celery leaves on each bottom bun and pile 1/2 cup of the shredded chicken on top. Smear the top bun with Blue Cheese Aioli and place on top of the chicken.
• Combine the blue cheese, mayonnaise, thyme and garlic together in a small bowl and stir well.

Steps:

• Place the lime in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave until the essential oils in the skin are released. Since this lime will be hot coming from the microwave, you will need to set this aside briefly, until it cools just enough to handle. Blend the allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, thyme, onions, scallions, pepper - together in a blender or food processor to make a pulp. Return to the lime and squeeze the juice into the blender through the feed tube. Reserve lime skins. Add the soy sauce through the feed tube and mix well.
• Season chicken pieces with jerk seasoning and place them along with the lime skins in a container which you will be able to cover tightly. Pour the marinade over the chicken and rest in the refrigerator overnight (or a minimum of 4 hours). Keep tightly covered and away from other foods, as it will taint them.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Transfer the marinated chicken to a roasting pan and pour oil over the chicken. Roast covered for about 25 minutes, removing the cover and increasing the temperature to 400 degrees F for the last 5 to 10 minutes or so. When the chicken is done, the flesh will feel firm and the juices will run clear. You can also use an instant-read thermometer which should register an internal temperature of 170 degrees F.
• The chicken can also be cooked on the grill. Heat grill to medium-high heat. Wrap chicken in a foil pouch in which you have shaken 1 tablespoon flour, and cook over indirect heat (on the side of the grill opposite the direct heat source) for about 15 to 20 minutes.
• While the chicken is cooking, prepare the aioli. Add peaches, mayonnaise, and cilantro to a food processor and blend until smooth. Season with salt and white pepper, to taste.
• Assemble sandwiches by placing sauce on roll, then chicken and top with shredded Cheddar and a sprig of cilantro.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Break down the chickens, removing all bones. Remove the tenders. Pound the breasts and thighs separately. Sprinkle all of the chicken pieces with salt.
• Preheat the oven to 220 degrees F. In a food processor, puree the chicken tenders with the cream, garlic, egg white, a touch of soy sauce and some yuzu kosho until smooth. Using this mixture, glue the thigh and breast together like a sandwich. Cook the chicken for 30 minutes. Cool the chicken in the refrigerator.
• Preheat a deep fryer with canola oil until a deep-frying thermometer inserted into the oil reaches 350 degrees F.
• Beat the milk and eggs together for an egg wash. Dust the chicken in the seasoned flour, then dip in the egg wash and coat with the panko. Deep fry until golden brown and warm on the inside. Keep the oil hot for later use.
• For the aioli: Put the Sriracha, fish sauce, gochujang, sesame oil, vinegar, yuzu kosho, yuzo and garlic in a blender. Blend while slowly adding the canola oil until thick. Transfer to a squirt bottle.
• For the slaw: Place the carrots, cabbage and scallions in a bowl along with the peanuts. Marinate with the fish sauce, ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, yuzu juice and yuzu kosho.
• For the chips: Peel and cut the potatoes using a mandoline into gaufrettes. Soak in cold water. Fry the potatoes golden brown, and then season with kosher salt.
• Layer the aioli, fried chicken, some cilantro leaves, papaya slices and a drizzle of sesame seed oil on the buns, and serve with the chips on the side.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the panko, red pepper flakes, parsley, salt and pepper.
• Dip each breast into the flour, then the eggs, and then the panko mixture.
• Fill a fryer or medium heavy pot 1/3 full with the oil, heat over high heat to 350 degrees F. Add the coated breasts and allow them to cook through, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Using a food processor, combine the jalapeno, serrano, ground Thai bird chile and red pepper flakes and blend until minced. Add the lemon juice and the egg yolk to the mixture. While the processor is running, slowly pour in the oil. Continue until a mayonnaise-like consistency is achieved. Season with the sugar, salt, and pepper, and refrigerate until ready to use.
• *RAW EGG WARNING
• Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.
• Using a mandoline, or a sharp knife thinly slice the potatoes. Fill a fryer or medium heavy pot 1/3 full with the oil and heat over high heat to 300 degrees. Add the potatoes to the oil and fry until golden brown and crisp about 5 minutes, making sure to turn the chips at least once. Remove the chips and drain on paper towels, sprinkle with salt.
• Plating: Cut each bread in half and toast on a grill or under a broiler. Spread the aioli on one side of the bread and top with the lettuce and tomato slices. Cut the chicken lengthwise and place it on top. Garnish with the potato chips Beverage suggestion: special Ice Teas and lots of beers Fosters, Sam Adams, Sierra Pale Ale
