Frugal Gourmet chicken sandwich
I’m writing this sitting at my desk and eating a chicken sandwich…. hoping you enjoyed this week’s episode of Frugal Gourmet. My sandwich is from the leftovers of a roast chicken that I made, to which I added wholemeal bread, baby spinach and very spicy French mustard. But let’s get down to business with this week’s recipe by Chef Stefano:
-sourdough bread
-chicken breast (marinated with olive oil, salt, pepper and grilled or panfried)
-tomatoes (sliced thickly)
-rocket leaves
-asparagus (blanched and halved lengthwise)
-parmesan cheese (shaved with a potato peeler)
-japanese mayonnaise
I’ve been getting a few comments about including instructions – but I think if you’ve watched Frugal Gourmet, the recipes are pretty straightforward…. Hopefully you’ve watched it! Otherwise the segment is repeated Saturday at 6.30am, 10.30am and 3.30pm and also Sunday 7.30am and 5.30pm. So no excuses!
Send in the photos to ptm@channelnewsasia.com – the prize this week is a dinner voucher for One-Ninety, which has some really good food… I’ve worked with the chefs in charge of the restaurant for the series and really learnt some good simple techniques about how to cook better and make the most of your ingredients. So I hope you’ve been enjoying the segment…
