Dijon Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• Combine first 6 ingredients.
• Butter croissants - this is important as the butter makes a 'lining' to prevent the croissant from getting too soggy, and it tastes good too.
• Fill croissants with lettuce, tomato slices and chicken salad.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, honey, mustard, salt and pepper. Pour into chicken mixture; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Serve on a lettuce-lined plate. Sprinkle with almonds.

Steps:

• Mix together the chicken, celery, green grapes, red grapes, cranberries, and chives in a bowl. Whisk together the honey, mustard, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Add the mustard mixture to the chicken mixture, stir to coat.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Put 1 chicken breast between two pieces of parchment or wax paper. Using a meat mallet (or the bottom of a heavy skillet), pound the chicken breast until it is 1/2 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts.
• Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Add the panko to a shallow dish.
• Brush the mustard on the pounded chicken cutlets with a pastry brush to coat both sides. Press each one into the panko, turning to coat well on all sides.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 of the cutlets and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the cutlets once and continue cooking until golden and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer the cutlets to the prepared baking sheet and immediately season with salt.
• Wipe out the skillet and repeat the cooking process with the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter and 2 cutlets.
• For the slaw: Place the celery seeds in a small skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring, until toasted and fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, sugar, lemon juice, toasted celery seeds, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add the red cabbage, green cabbage, scallions and parsley to the bowl and toss well to combine.
• For assembly: Position an oven rack 3 to 4 inches from the broiler unit, and preheat the broiler to high. Split the brioche buns and toast until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Slice each chicken cutlet in half crosswise.
• Spoon a portion of the slaw onto each of the bottom buns. Stack the halved chicken cutlets on top of the slaw. Add the pickles and top buns and serve.

Steps:

• Poaching chicken: Place breasts in a large pot of cold water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil 7 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
• Remove from pot to plate and cool enough to chop.
• Salad:.
• Add chopped chicken to a large bowl, stir with a fork to begin breaking the chicken up. Add the celery, onion, and pecans stirring well. Add mustard, mayonnaise, honey, and salt and pepper. Stir well. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Open one of the loaves of bread, remove the heels and place on your counter. Place about 2-3 Tablespoons of salad on each slice of bread. Spread with spoon to cover. Open the second loaf of bread, remove the heels, and place on top of the salad. Cut sandwich with serrated knife into triangles. Serve on lettuce lined platter point side up.
• Note: this is really good on toast, too.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly coat a baking dish with cooking spray.
• Season chicken evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and onion powder. Place in the prepared baking dish and cover tightly with foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear and chicken shreds easily, about 1 hour 20 minutes; don't overcook. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove from the oven, uncover, and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes. Reserve any accumulated chicken broth.
• Prepare dressing while chicken cools. Combine 1 cup mayonnaise, sour cream, relish, green onions, parsley, Dijon, lemon juice, dill, and remaining salt and pepper in a large bowl; mix until well combined.
• Break chicken into large pieces and place in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 3 to 5 times to shred chicken to desired consistency.
• Transfer chicken to a bowl. Add celery and pour dressing over top; toss to coat. If more moisture is desired, add reserved broth or more mayonnaise.
• Cover and chill for at least 2 hours (or up to 2 days) before serving. Stir well before serving.

Steps:

• 1. Combine mayonnaise, green onions, dijon mustard, dill, salt and chicken.
• 2. Fill croissants with lettuce, tomato and chicken salad.
