Pulled Chicken Sandwich in Yogurt Dressing
Who doesn’t love sandwiches??Breads and sandwiches are always a life saver if we are in a hurry!If you are someone like me who likes to play with different flavors in sandwiches here is a simple creamy and flavorful pulled chicken sandwich.Yes you can make it with leftover chicken too!Yay!
First time i’m trying my sandwich with yogurt dressing and believe me it was super delicious!Thankfully i found a new way to lessen the amount of mayo in my sandwiches for the richness!But make sure you use less sour yogurt.Yogurt is mixed with some mayo,curry flavored caramelized onion and the pulled chicken ,the result is creamy,rich and flavorful filling for sandwich!
Actually last week hubby was out of station for some business meeting and i tried to make such easy peasy treats for kids which they would enjoy and less time consuming simple work for me!hehe!That means a lazy week with some simple yet kids fav food around us!You can use any kind of bread here for the sandwich.
This will be a great option for kids lunch box if you have some leftover chicken with you.Even i made it with leftover chicken.Over to the recipe
