2 1/2 teaspoons salt

Gently wrap the shorter end of the plastic up and over the butter, using it to help shape and roll the butter into a log. Twist the ends of the plastic closed, like a hard-candy wrapper.

CAJUN BLACKENED CHICKEN SANDWICHES



Cajun Blackened Chicken Sandwiches image

We developed these sandwiches after a local favorite hangout closed down- these sandwiches were our standard order every time we went in, and now we make them regularly at home. The chicken method and seasonings are from Aroostook's Blackened Chicken, with a few minor tweaks. She's right when she says turn off the smoke detector, and I agree with her recommendation of using a cast iron skillet. I ruined one of my good skillets making this the first time- it's now a dedicated blackened chicken skillet. But the cast iron works MUCH better! I usually end up doubling the seasonings, putting them in a shaker container to sprinkle generously over the chicken and veggies.

BLACKENED CHICKEN SANDWICH



Blackened Chicken Sandwich image

This recipe for Blackened Chicken has become one of my favorite recipes, and I'll definitely be doing it again. It's easy, and took only about 30 minutes from start to eat, which makes it great to cook when you've been working all day.

Provided by Capn Ron

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 6 sandwiches, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons cajun seasoning, Butt Kickin' Blacken, Original Recipe
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
3 large chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, about 2 pounds
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, as needed
1 tablespoon butter, as needed, for frying
1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil, as needed, for frying
1 loaf ciabatta or 6 ciabatta rolls
lettuce
tomatoes, sliced
mayonnaise, Chipotle Remoulade

Steps:

  • Mix up the Blackening Rub, and set it aside.
  • In most cases, Chicken Breasts are really too thick for a sandwich. So, slice them in half using a filet knife being careful not to cut yourself.
  • Oil the halved chicken, then coat with the rub. Work it in real well so that all parts of the chicken are coated.
  • Set a pan to med / high, and add the butter and oil when it gets hot.
  • When the butter has melted, and just barely beginning to smoke, add the chicken. Cook about 7 minutes on the first side, then turn it over and cook the other side. When done, set on paper towels for the grease to drain off.
  • Ron's Note:.
  • Don't turn the pan to too hot a temperature because all you'll do is burn the outside, and have raw meat in the middle. That's why I cook this chicken at a med / high temperature If you notice that it's beginning to burn, turn the heat down a little to insure that the inside gets done.
  • I used Ciabatta Bread, sliced into a 3" piece, then halved with some of the insides removed.
  • Lay on some lettuce, then the tomato, and finally set the Blackened Chicken on top. The lettuce on the bottom will keep any juices from soaking into the bread.
  • Add the Chipotle Remoulade, top it, and you're ready to serve.

BAR CHICKS - BLACKENED CHICKEN SLIDERS



Bar Chicks - Blackened Chicken Sliders image

I liked these that a local restaurant chain made so much, I came up with my own take on this. Blackened chicken with a chipotle aioli and caramelized onion just complement each other well. These are good mini-sized or meal-sized. It's easy to prep ingredients ahead of time and just cook the chicken when you are ready. For large sandwiches, cut each chicken breast into 2 pieces.

Steps:

  • Mix white wine, soy sauce, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and Worcestershire sauce together in a resealable bag; add chicken and seal bag. Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for 8 to 24 hours.

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter together in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are the best choice for this recipe. They cook quickly and evenly, and they're easy to slice for sandwiches.
  • Make sure the chicken is well-seasoned. The blackened seasoning is what gives these chicken sandwiches their unique flavor. Be generous with the spices, and make sure to coat the chicken evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over high heat. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the chicken while keeping the inside moist and juicy.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make the chicken dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality almond butter. Almond butter is the key ingredient in the almond butter sauce. Make sure to use a brand that you like the taste of.
  • Add some heat to the almond butter sauce. The red pepper jam adds a nice touch of heat to the almond butter sauce. If you like things spicy, you can add more red pepper jam to taste.
  • Serve the chicken sandwiches on your favorite bread. Brioche buns, ciabatta rolls, and sourdough bread are all good choices.

Conclusion:

These blackened chicken sandwiches with almond butter and red pepper jam are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. They're perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and they're also great for tailgating or picnics. With their unique flavor and combination of textures, these chicken sandwiches are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
