In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Chicken Littles Sandwiches. Uncooked chicken breasts are cut into pieces that are about the size of a “slider” (small) sandwich bun. The pieces are seasoned and coated with flour, and fried until bowned and done, and then placed in a small bun, along with mayonnaise and dill pickle chips. A great party snack!

Ingredients:

chicken breast meat, cut into squares about 2-inches by 2-inches and 1-inch thick. (You will need about 1 1/2 pounds of chicken breast to make a dozen sandwiches.)
meat tenderizer (No MSG) or salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 cup flour
1/3 cup peanut (or other) oil in a heavy, 9-inch skillet
slider buns (miniature sandwich buns) (If you cannot find slider buns, then you may use party rolls, or you may make biscuits or rolls frome scratch–You will find recipes for biscuits and rolls in bettyskitchen.)
mayonnaise, to taste
dill pickle chips, to taste

Slice uncooked chicken into squares, so that you have the number of squares you need to serve on the number of slider buns you have available. If you have leftover pieces of chicken, chop them into cubes, and fry them as “chicken nuggets” after you have made your Chicken Littles. Sprinkle each uncooked chicken breast square with meat tenderizer or salt, and grind fresh black peppercorns over both sides. (You may sprinkle with ground black pepper, instead.) Place 1 cup flour in a gallon-sized zip lock bag. Place about 4 sqares of chicken in the bag at a time, and shake to coat with flour. Place the coated chicken squares, one at a time, into hot peanut oil in a skillet on top of the stove. Continue placing the squares, until you have a single layer in the skillet. Now, let the chicken cook over medium heat, until it is brown on the bottom side. Turn once, and let the chicken brown on the other side. When chicken is brown on both sides (and done all the way through), remove from the hot oil, and place on paper toweling to drain. To serve, cut a slider bun open at the “hinge, spread both halves with a thin layer of mayonnaise, place a cooked square of chicken on one side and put two dill pickle slices on the other side. Close the bun, and the chicken Little is ready to eat! Serve while warm, if possible, although these are good, even after they have cooled a bit. This will be great for feeding a crowd at a Super Bowl party! (You can fry the chicken earlier, and reheat it right before assembling the Chicken Little Sandwiches–very carefree and easy!) I hope you enjoy these; we love them! –Betty :)

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make her Hearty and Healthy Grilled Chicken Sandwich. This is a great sandwich to make if you are just cooking for yourself or maybe for 2–but it can be made for a crowd!

Ingredients: (for 2 sandwiches)

2 uncooked chicken breast fillets
2 sweet Italian sub buns (You may substitute any type of sandwich bread here–Italian bread or French baguette or other choices are good.)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
meat tenderizer, to taste
freshly ground black pepper
extra virgin olive oil–enough to coat chicken
1 slice Deluxe American cheese, optional (You may use any type of sliced cheese that you like.)
2 thin slices fresh tomato
fresh lettuce leaves

Prepare 2 chicken breast fillets for your sandwich by using a meat mallet (or something heavy) to flatten and tenderize the fillets. Sprinkle both sides with meat tenderizer to taste, and freshly ground pepper to taste. Rub both sides of the fillets with extra virgin olive oil, and set aside. Now, wash your hands, and prepare the spread for your sandwiches. Mix 1/2 cup mayonnaise with 2 tablespoons dill pickle relish. Stir thoroughly, and pour into a small serving dish, and set aside. (This spread may be enough for 4 sandwiches, depending on how much you want for each sandwich.) Now, prepare your bread. If the bread is not cut into serving pieces, separate it, and slice it into two halves per sandwich. Place these in a pan and put them in a 400 degree oven that is turned to broil. Leave the door partially open, and keep a close eye on the bread, because it will toast very quickly. When it is lightly browned, remove it from the oven, and set aside. At this point take your 2 chicken fillets to an outdoor grill, which has been preheated, and grill them until they are done all the way through. Chicken must be completely cooked! (You may use an electric kitchen grill for convenience, and the results will be very good.) When the chicken is done, you are ready to emble your sandwich. Spread a generous amount of the mayonnaise/dill pickle spread on the bottom half of one of the toasted sub buns. Next, place a grilled chicken fillet over the spread. Top this with a slice of Deluxe American (or other) cheese, if you like. Next, place a couple of thin slices of tomato and some lettuce leaves. Finish embling the sandwich with the matching top of the toasted sub bun. Cut the sandwich across the middle, in a diagonal fashion. Place it on a plate with some pretzels, and treat yourself to a cold soda! This will be a hearty, but healthy sandwich, and it is very easy to make for one person or for a crowd! Enjoy!!!
