We particularly liked this sandwich on slipper-shaped ciabatta bread, although any type of soft Italian bread is suitable.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 2 servings

Ingredients

1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 firm-ripe mango
2 skinless boneless chicken breast halves (about 3/4 pound total)
1 teaspoon olive oil
a 7-inch length soft Italian bread such as ciabatta
4 small soft-leafed lettuce leaves

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a bowl stir together mayonnaise, sour cream, cilantro, curry powder, and salt and pepper to taste until combined well. Peel mango and thinly slice lengthwise.

    Step 2

    Pat chicken dry and season with salt and pepper. In a 9-inch nonstick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté chicken 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes. Diagonally slice chicken and season with salt and pepper.

    Step 3

    Horizontally halve bread with a serrated knife and spread cut sides with mayonnaise mixture. On 1 bread half stack lettuce, chicken, and mango and top with remaining bread half, gently pressing together. Cut sandwich in half.
