someone else's chicken, con't....

Day 2: Sandwiches

After the dishwasher has done its work, I chop up some of the dark meat from someone else’s chicken and make chicken salad for sandwiches.

My add-ins change, depending on what’s in season or what I have on hand.

Traditional Chicken Salad

- diced chicken

- diced red pepper  (or roasted red pepper)

- chopped green onions or celery

- olive oil mayonnaise

- 1 T of sour cream (optional)

- salt and pepper

Indian-Inspired Chicken Salad

- diced chicken

- sliced grapes

- diced celery

- olive oil mayonnaise

- ¼ – ½ tsp. curry paste or powder

- salt and pepper

Stir together and load onto sourdough toast. And then, eat it quickly before someone else discovers how good it is.

By now, you might only have a bit of chicken left on the bones. I have plans for those bits and bones, too. Stay posted…
