1 pound chicken cutlets
4 teaspoons Masaman-curry paste, such as Maesri
4 celery stalks, thinly sliced on the bias (2 cups)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice and 1 teaspoon grated zest, plus wedges for serving
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for grill
1/4 cup cocktail peanuts, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 baguette, cut into quarters and halved lengthwise
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup fresh tender herbs, such as cilantro and mint
Sliced mango, for serving

Steps:

Brush both sides of chicken with curry. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand 15 minutes. Toss celery with lime juice, oil, and peanuts; season with salt and pepper.
Heat a grill or grill pan over high. Grill bread, cut-side down, until lightly toasted, 1 minute. Season chicken with salt; brush grates with oil and grill until browned on one side, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and grill until just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board. Stir together mayonnaise and lime zest; spread evenly over cut sides of bread. Slice chicken and arrange on bottom halves of bread. Toss celery mixture with herbs; sprinkle over both halves of bread. Serve with mango slices and a squeeze of lime.
