Sweet Chili Chicken Toastie

I’ve said before that toasted sandwich’s are an excellent way to use up leftovers and this recipe is another great example.

It lets you turn your leftover roast chicken into a great tasting toasted sandwich.

Ingredients

The ingredients for this sweet chili chicken toasted sandwich are:

We first came across sweet chili sauce in Thailand in 2004

The key ingredient in this toastie is the sweet chili sauce. It really elevates the chicken with, not surprisingly, a hot sweet taste. When you get your sweet chili sauce be sure to see how hot it is and give it a taste before adding to the chicken to make sure you get the balance right for you.

Method

  1. Put your (leftover) chicken in a bowl, add the sweet chili sauce and mix together
  2. Lay out the bread and put mayonnaise on each slice
  3. Spread out the chicken mix on 1 slice of bread
  4. Top with grated cheddar cheese
  5. Place the other slice of bread on top and push down
  6. Place the sandwich in the toasted sandwich maker for 10 minutes until golden brown

Serve with

This toasted sandwich goes really well with a selection of fresh vegetables on the side like cucumber or carrot. The fresh taste goes really well with the hot chili sauce.

Another great side dish or dessert would be a Lassi. A Lassi is a classic Malaysian yogurt drink that goes perfectly with hot and spicy food. Mango Lassi is the most popular flavor.
