Junglee Chicken Sandwich

The BEST Chicken Sandwich

The joy of a good chicken sandwich is hard to describe. I grew up eating sandwiches and while ham and cheese was my staple, the chicken junglee sandwich was king. I’m not sure this is a sandwich you get anywhere else (at least to my knowledge). On first glance it’s just a chicken and mayo sandwich, you get that everywhere. There isn’t particularly special about it. But this sandwich has a few twists that set it apart from any other chicken and mayo sandwich you’ve ever eaten.

So give it a try!

Make it a salad!

Not I know many of my viewers/readers are on Keto and I actually did a Junglee chicken salad recipe. But you can also use this filling in Keto bread, you can easily put it in lettuce cups and devourer it. You could also possibly use this mix with fish, probably canned tuna would be good or some white fish filet.

Now when it comes to the chicken you are just looking for well cooked breast meat that has been shredded. You can grab a rotisserie chicken from your local supermarket.  Alternatively you can use my method for cooking the chicken or if you can’t be bothered just throw it in the instant pot or the oven and cook it. Just don’t over cook it, you don’t want super dry chicken breast.

This recipe makes 4 servings. Get this recipe on myfitnesspal.  This nutrition info is JUST FOR THE FILLING. It does not include the bread. Also this is using Hellman’s Mayo which is 75 calories per 15g. The macros for mayo brands vary worldwide. Also use a lower fat or fat-free mayo or greek yogurt to lower the calories and fat. Normally the bread macros will also vary on the brand and size. I’m using white bread slices in the video which are about 27 grams and 70 calories per slice. So add 150 calories + 264 calories = 414 calories a sandwich.
