Questions about Chicken sandwich
How do you cook chicken for a sandwich without drying it out?
Flatten a boneless breast to an even thickness of about 1.5 cm and pan-fry it over medium heat for about 4–5 minutes per side. Check that the centre reaches 75 °C, then rest it for a few minutes before slicing.
How do you keep a chicken sandwich from going soggy?
Toast the cut sides of the bread, let freshly cooked chicken cool briefly, and put lettuce between the chicken and any wet filling. Add mayonnaise or dressing just before serving.
How long can you keep a chicken sandwich in the fridge?
Refrigerate it promptly in a covered container and eat it within 2 days. If it has been left at room temperature for more than 2 hours, discard it.

Try lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise for a classic filling, or add bacon and avocado. Coronation chicken—curried chicken mixed with a creamy dressing and often sultanas—is a well-known sandwich filling.
