Great Sandwich

This excellent Italian Seasoned Chicken sandwich is perfect topped with fresh chopped tomatoes, red onions, avocados and served on top of fresh baked ciabatta bread.

Ciabatta bread, or “Italian slipper bread”, is nice and crisp on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. It is one of the many types of artisan breads that can be made for this sandwich.

This Italian Seasoned Chicken sandwich can be spiced up any way you like. I normally just combine a little oregano, basil, thyme and marjoram. Also make sure the bread is nice and warm when served. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

Ciabatta Buns

  • 4 cup of unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups of warm water
  • 2 tsp of wheat gluten
  • 1 tsp of salt

  • Attach the dough hook to the mixer and add the flour to the mixture a little at a time and blend on slow speed.
  • Turn the speed up one notch and continue to blend the mixture while scraping the sides with a spatula.
  • The mixture will form a sticky dough that resembles a thick cake batter.
