Banh Mi Sandwich

Ingredients

• 2 8-inch long pieces of a light, airy french baguette
• Mayonnaise or softened butter
• Soy Sauce or Maggi Seasoning for drizzling
• 2-3 cups grilled, sliced, boneless-skinless
• 4-6 thin slices English cucumber, seeded
• Pickled Daikon and Carrots (Recipe Below)

Method

Step 01

Slice each piece of baguette in half horizontally, stopping before you cut all the way through to leave a hinge.  Lightly toast the baguette pieces in the oven until just barely crusty and set aside to cool for a moment.

Step 02

Generously slather the inside of each baguette with mayonnaise or softened butter and sprinkle with a few dashes of soy sauce or Maggi seasoning.

Step 03

Layer in warm slices of grilled five-spice chicken and top with 1/3 cup pickled daikon/carrots, cucumber, cilantro and a few slices of jalapeño.

Step 04

Serve warm or at room temperature.
