Phase 1 Marinating The Chicken
First of all you want to cut your chicken into cubes, and then take your liquid smoke and pout it over but only using a small amount if you use too much it will taste like leather.
Add in 1 TBS of baking soda, some smoked paprika, some maple bacon spice, a bit of salt and ground pepper to taste, mix this together, and sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, but idealy for a few hours.
Phase 2 The Salad
Make your noodle package as per directions, but don’t put the spice mix in.
In a food processor put your cabbage, your onion, and brocoli, your jalapino and blend it right out.
When the noodles are done let them cool and cut them down a bit and add them and mix it all together.
Phase 3 Rice
Make your rice, about 2 cups should be good, you can always make more if needed.
Phase 4 Cook The Chicken
Cook your chicken and be patient you just want to add a bit of oil on the top of it, and j ust cook over medium heat so it doesn’t burn.
Phase 5 The Sauce Honey Garlic Sauce
Food Processes your jalopino, add your honey, your ketsup, your soy sauce and mix it up really well, add your minced garlic and make sure that its mixed extremly well.
When It starts bubbling you know its done!
Phase 6 Serving it
On a plate line it with rice, then add your chicken and then make sure you have a hefty amount of sauce over it, and serve your salad on the side and your done!
Sandwiches are great, but ever wonder why yours looks bad and get stuck buying one just to get one that looks and tastes great?
I’ve been guilty of it, and I know so have you, but here is the thing, you have to consider the quality of meat your using, the type of bread or bun your using, and sauce and how its going together, it really does mater.
So lets take some time and think about it.
Phase 1. The meat!
The meat is a big part of a sandwich, and often if you go to the store and buy sandwich meat, its thin, not as flavorful and just not the best quality around, so what do we do?
In our video here we used chicken, but you can use pork or a beef product, season it to what you like, pepper, salt if you must (I like low sodium myself), maybe some honey, and bake it until its cooked , but you want it moist.
When done take it out of the oven, let it cool and then slice it thin, or however you like it, many of us don’t have a meat slicer and thats ok, (who has room for that anyways.), when done put it in the fridge for a bit.
Phase 2. Veggies.
Cut up your veggies nice and thin, but remember to use veggies that are dry, cukes and tomatoes are nice and all, but they can often be wet and can make your sandwich a soggy mess, so if your going to use tomatoes make sure you are not putting seeds in, this will ruin it, take those out. you want lettuce or spinach or something similar. make sure to have several varieties or your sandwich is going to be boring.
Phase 3. Sauce.
Directly on the inside of the bun on both sides, I like just plain mayo over that, it acts like a lubricant, and helps keep the bread from going soggy, you can do a mayo mix with hot sauce, or mustard or other things to give it a bit more flavor.
You can use other sauces like BBQ sauces, or a vinaigrette, or other tasty sauces you might want to include.
Phase 4. Cheese
You need cheese, plain and simple and to be honest you do not want cheesewiz, you want something of quality, you can get cheese slices, but honestly that brings you back to just making bland crap, so you can buy a block of cheese and cut that up, or go to the deli and buy a really nice block of cheese, trust me the flavor this brings is so electric and amazing, and trust me the cheese that you get from the deli is actual real cheese, and if you’ve never had it, trust me you need to.
Phase 5. Bread
You could use whtie bread, but when you buy a a good quality sandwich is it on white bread, most often it isn’t, why not choose a multi grain, or even better a nice bun, or roll, after all you want the best quality you can get, and this is going to do it.
Phase 6. Putting it all together!
Ok, so here is the fun part, not the most fun part, that is you eating it.
Take your roll and cut it down the middle, or if its bread just use both slices, but put your mayo, or mayo mix on the bottom of each side, this will act as a lubricant, which helps from keeping the juices getting your bread product
Then put some lettuce on the bottom and layering it nicely.
Now you want to take your meat and start layering that as well, giving it a nice presentation and having enough on it to make you happy.
Now start putting your veggies on it one by one, keeping in mind not to put too many veggies on it as it will make it messy and also hard to close, this isn’t a Subway sub, they do give you lots of veggies, but not a whole lot, and in the end it does look good, but the quality isn’t there.
Now your sauce you want to use, and remember do not over load this, or it is going to be messy, you want to have enough you taste and know its there and are happy, but not so much its going to over flow.
Then your cheese, and you want enough of this, especially if its from the deli.
Then lastly some more lettuce and close your sandwich.
The only thing left to do if you really want, you can put this in a pre heated oven to toast it.
But thats all, try this out some time, and if your someone who would enjoy to bring this to your work for lunch, buy the quantities for the week, and do the math, I bet you its cheaper than buying it every day, and honestly your co workers are going to be jelous!
