Junglee Chicken Sandwich
My mom is a big hoarder of cookbooks, magazines etc. and I did borrow some of her collections as usual… hehe and that’s when I came across this cookbook of Sanjeev Kapoor. That name immediately caught my attention. Junglee means crazy or wild in hindi language.
I was very curious about this Junglee sandwich that I immediately searched in the web, and found that @headbangerskitchen had shared a recipe too. Some toasted the bread in butter, while others had it plain. Some mentioned an airlines that served this sandwich m. So I was curious, thought the ingredients looked very basic, and I didn’t know why everyone said they love it. As it very much resembled this chicken sandwich that I make often. Nevertheless, I took inspiration from here and there and I made it l..and oh boy!! It was super Yumm!! Though I am not a fan of coriander leaves in sandwiches, this one was definitely a flavor bomb! 😋
This sandwich, just like the name, can be made very versatile. You can use your choice of veggies and play around with it. I added the veggies that I had in my hand. This makes a great tiffin idea as it has protein and veggies too. Adding Worcestershire sauce definitely added a good flavor to the filling, definitely do use it if you have it in your pantry!
Without further ado, let’s get started!
Ingredients:
- 150 gms boneless chicken
- 1/2 cup water
- Salt, as required
- 1/2 tsp White Pepper Powder
- Cabbage, sliced thinly
- Carrot, grated
- Coriander leaves, handful, chopped finely
- 1- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Cream (thick/fresh)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, optional
- Mozzarella Cheese, use generously
- Butter, to spread on bread slices
Instructions:
- Cover and cook the cleaned chicken in water, salt and white pepper powder.
- After around 5-7 minutes, check the doneness of the chicken and transfer to a bowl and using two forks, pull the chicken.
- Slice up some cabbage, add some grated carrot, and other veggies of your choice, and the hero ingredient, chopped coriander leaves!
- Add in Mayo, thick cream, Worcestershire sauce, mozzarella cheese, and combine everything well.
- Spread butter on one side of each bread slice and place the filling on the side without the butter.
- Toast the sandwich and slice and serve! You are ready to enjoy it with a good cuppa coffee or tea! And makes a great lunchbox idea too! 😋
Ps: Adding Worcestershire would definitely pump up the flavor..do use it if you have it your pantry.
Add finely chopped green chilies, but I didn’t add it as my daughter is not fond of spicy food .
Tip:
I warmed the bread in one side, to help spread the butter more easily.
