I was sitting on the couch wonderin' how I was going to prepare my lunch. I'd already decided that last night's garlic bread from our local market was going to be the base and the chicken breast I saved from the roaster I made up would make the meat. Just plain ole' chicken on garlic bread wasn't going to be enough. I looked up at the mortar and pestle atop the fridge and found inspiration... make some garlic and onion mayo to go with it. I won the sandwich war today!
Step One:
Slice an onion thinly, just one slice. Add the onion and 1 clove of garlic to your m&p and mash to a pulp. Once mashed up nicely add some salt and pepper to taste. The addition of the salt helped to cut the strong garlic taste. I started with a pinch of each.
Step Two:
Put that beautiful paste into another bowl/container with
1 tbsp of mayo. Mix together well. Add more seasoning as needed.
Step Three:
Smear a coating of your new mayo blend on both sides of the garlic bread. Add the thinly sliced chicken breast and cheese (I've been using the block "Coastal" rough cheddar from Costco... so yummy). Close it up and there ya go.
It was soooo good. A bit high on the calories because of the garlic bread but not a diet killer. About 534 calories but I'm pretty full now.
Step Four: Profit
ReplyDeleteSounds like a pretty decent lunch. Better than the unadorned cheese bagel I just ate...
Mmm... love the variation on the aioli. I sometimes will do the same and add some of that Pepper Plant garlic to it. Sounds awesome though!
