I forgot to take a picture - I'm always hungry; this dinner was immediately consumed with no consideration for a blog, only thoughts for my stomach. There should be a picture here.
2 lb chicken breast, cut in cubes or strips
Salt and Pepper
Flour
Olive Oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 C chicken broth
1/2 C balsamic vinegar
6 Tbsp brown sugar
1/2 C broccoli puree (steam some broccoli, throw it in a food processor or blender with a teaspoon or more of the steaming water. Puree until you have a smooth, creamy texture. My thoughts - cook up a bunch of steamed broccoli and either use it the night before and save out enough for this, or serve the extra steamed broccoli as a side to this sandwich)
6 ciabatta rolls
Tomatoes, sliced
Fresh basil
Grated mozzerella cheese
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour. Cook in skillet with olive oil and garlic until chicken browns on all sides. Add chicken broth, vinegar, and brown sugar. Bring to boil. Simmer ~10 min until chicken is cooked all the way through. Add broccoli puree. Cook for 2 more minutes.
Place tomato slices and basil on bottom of rolls. Top with chicken, sauce, and sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 350 (or if your impatient like me, broil - but watch closely so it doesn't burn) until cheese is melted. Enjoy!
Original recipe in the parade magazine a month ago, by Jessica Seinfeld. Supposedly Jerry Seinfeld's favorite sandwich.
