The Perfect Summer Sandwich: Chipotle Chicken Salad



Tomorrow we're spending the day at the beach, so I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to make some fresh summer sandwiches for our lunch. Here is my own recipe for Chipotle Chicken Salad Sandwiches.


 What you'll need:
- Boneless chicken breast, cut into small pieces
(or, you can also buy precooked & pre-grilled chicken strips to save time)
- Aurora bread crumbs (I used Italian Style with Romano Cheese, for added flavour)
- Mayonaise
- Chipotle Southwest sauce
- Green onions and or celery, chopped up into small pieces
- Pepper, and Herbes de Provence (optional)
- Lettuce
- Olive oil
- Milk

Directions:
1. Dip the pieces of chicken into a bowl of cold white milk, then into a bowl of the bread crumbs. Cover the chicken pieces completely in bread crumbs.
2. Throw the pieces of chicken onto heated skillet with olive oil. Fry until golden brown.
3. Once the chicken is done frying, place the chicken into a mixing bowl, along with your desired amount of the mayonnaise and Chipotle sauce. Throw in the chopped onions and or celery.
4. You can also add spices like pepper, herbes de Provence, basil, etc.
5. Mix it all up, until the chicken is evenly covered in the dressing.
Once your chicken salad is finished, you can put it in between your favourite bread (buns, fresh loaf, etc.), and throw in some fresh green lettuce. 

WAY tastier than your average bologna sandwich!
To the beach :)
