Barbecue Chicken Sandwich Recipe
Change up your regular lunch routine by using dinner leftovers to make a tasty sandwich. Not only will it give your colleagues lunch envy, but will also help you get your six to eight grain servings per day, as recommended by Canada's Food Guide.
As a good rule of thumb, half of these servings should come from whole grains and the other half can come from any other grain options, including tasty white bread. Most white bread also contains fibre and essential nutrients, so every slice counts.
Here's a quick and easy sandwich recipe made with leftover barbecue chicken and coleslaw:
Ingredients
| 4 slices Dempster's white bread | ||
| Leftover chicken | 2 Cup (16 tbs), sliced | |
| Barbecue sauce | 1/4 Cup (16 tbs) | |
| Mayonnaise | 1 Tablespoon | |
| Cider vinegar | 2 Teaspoon | |
| Sugar | 1/2 Teaspoon | |
| Coleslaw mix | 1 Cup (16 tbs) | |
| Salt | To Taste | |
| Pepper | To Taste | |
Directions
Toss chicken with barbecue sauce and divide between 2 slices of bread. Whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Toss with coleslaw. Put the coleslaw on top of the chicken. Top with remaining bread slices to make sandwiches. Slice and serve immediately.
