LIONEL'S CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH image

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 whole chicken breast on the bone (1 1/2 pounds)
1 tablespoon olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups homemade or best-quality mayonnaise
3 tablespoon capers, rinsed
Juice of 1/2 lemon
6 slices crusty white bread

Steps:

1. Heat oven to 450°. Place chicken in a small roasting pan. Rub with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Bake until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reads 180°, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and cool slightly. Remove chicken from bones, and discard bones. Finely chop chicken (there should be about 2 cups). 2. In a medium bowl, combine chicken, mayonnaise, capers, and lemon juice. Stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. 3. Toast four slices bread. Spread a thin layer of chicken salad over one slice untoasted bread. Top with a slice of toasted bread. Spread a second thin layer of chicken salad over toasted bread. Top with a slice of untoasted bread. Repeat with remaining bread and chicken salad.
