TINK'S CHICKEN & TUNA SALAD SANDWICHES



Tink's Chicken & Tuna Salad Sandwiches image

An easy combo of chicken and tuna that's not too fruity, sweet or spicy, but packed with flavors that really compliment each other. Tonight, DS told me he wasn't going to be home for dinner so I planned on just splitting one leftover chicken breast between DH, our toddler & myself. Then at the last minute DS said he was going to be home after all, but now I had nothing thawed to make! I got into creative mode, scrounged the fridge & pantry & came up with this unusual take on the chicken sandwich. I didn't expect great things, but my boys raved over it, I impressed myself & even my toddler ate it! In the future I will probably add green onion to the mix, as I usually would, but just didn't have it on hand this time. I'm posting my creation here so we can enjoy it again and in hopes that you'll find it as pretty and tasty as we did. :)

THE BEST TUNA SALAD



The Best Tuna Salad image

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.

Two 6-ounce cans white meat tuna packed in water, drained
2 tablespoons minced celery

1 teaspoon minced flat-leaf parsley
1/3 cup prepared mayonnaise

Freshly ground black pepper
Freshly squeezed lemon juice (optional)

THE BEST CHICKEN SALAD



The Best Chicken Salad image

Gently poaching chicken breasts in an aromatic broth yields tender morsels for folding into a bright and herby homemade dressing. Serve it solo on a bed of lettuce with sliced tomatoes or in half an avocado. It also makes a killer chicken club sandwich topped with crisp bacon and other sandwich fixings.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup prepared or homemade mayonnaise
2 teaspoons strained freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cups diced poached chicken, recipe follows
1 stalk celery, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 tablespoons shallot, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
Sliced chives, for garnish
10 sprigs parsley
2 sprigs thyme
1 small onion, halved
1 small carrot, halved
1 stalk celery, halved
3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves, fat trimmed
5 to 6 cups chicken broth, homemade or low-sodium store bought

Steps:

  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, 1 tablespoon salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl.
  • Toss together the chicken, celery, shallot, dill and parsley in a large bowl.
  • Add the dressing to the chicken and mix gently until combined. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to overnight to meld flavors. Garnish with chives.
  • Put the parsley, thyme, onion, carrot, celery and chicken breasts in a medium saucepan. Cover with the broth and bring just to a boil. Reduce the heat to very low and cover. Poach the chicken until firm to the touch, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, uncover and cool the chicken in the liquid for 30 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and reserve the liquid. Bone and skin the chicken and roughly chop the meat into about 1/2-inch pieces. Discard the bones and skin.
  • Strain the broth and store, covered, in the refrigerator for 3 days or freeze for later use. Remove any fat from the surface of the broth before using.
