Grilled Chicken Hoagies with Mango Chutney and Melted Brie Served with Tomato Cucumber Salad image

Categories     Bread     Salad     Chicken     Tomato     Side     Marinate     Brie     Mango     Cucumber

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 tablespoons EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil), plus some for drizzling
1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/3 palmful
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Salt and black pepper
8 chicken breast cutlets
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (eyeball it)
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar (eyeball it)
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 English or European seedless cucumber, cut in half lengthwise, then thinly sliced into half moons
4 hoagie rolls (sub rolls)
3/4 cup store-bought mango chutney
8 ounces Brie cheese, cut into thin slices
1 bunch watercress, trimmed and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to high heat.
  • In a shallow dish, mix together 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, the thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken cutlets and coat thoroughly. Let the chicken marinate while you get the salad together and grill up the bread.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the mustard, white wine vinegar, shallots, and a little salt and pepper. In a slow, steady stream, whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons of EVOO. Add the grape tomatoes; with a fork smash some of the tomatoes against the side of the bowl so that their juices become part of the dressing. Add the sliced cucumbers and toss them to combine.
  • Cut the hoagie rolls in half lengthwise like a book, without separating the two halves all the way. Drizzle the inside of the rolls with some EVOO, hinge the rolls open, and lay them down on the grill with the inside flat against the grill. Once they are well marked, 1 to 2 minutes, flip them over and grill the outside a little bit. Remove the rolls from the grill and reserve.
  • Grill the cutlets for 3 to 4 minutes on one side. Flip the cutlets and top each with some of the mango chutney, spreading it out a bit, and 2 slices of Brie. Tent the chicken with a piece of foil and continue to grill it for 3 to 4 minutes to melt the cheese. Remove the cutlets from the grill, cut each in half, and distribute the chicken among the grilled rolls, wedging it into the bread. Top the chicken with some of the chopped watercress and squeeze the hoagies shut. Serve the sandwiches alongside the tomato cucumber salad.

CHICKEN SALAD AND CRANBERRY BRIE TOAST



Chicken Salad and Cranberry Brie Toast image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 (2 to 3-pound) whole chicken
1 gallon water
2 carrots, cut in 2-inch pieces
3 celery stalks, cut in 2-inch pieces
1 onion, halved
1 head garlic, halved horizontally
2 turnips, halved
4 fresh thyme sprigs
2 fresh rosemary sprigs
10 peppercorns
3 bay leaves
1/2 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
Kosher salt
About 1 cup mayonnaise
1 heaping tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 lemon, juiced
2 celery stalks, small diced
2 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley leaves plus sprigs, for garnish
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cups shredded chicken meat, roughly chopped
8 slices sourdough bread, cut 1/2-inch thick
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup cranberry sauce
1/2 pound brie
1 green apple, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Begin by poaching the chicken. Put the chicken in a large stockpot and cover with 1 gallon of cool water. Add the vegetables and herbs and bring the pot up to a boil over medium-high heat. Skim well; then simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes, skimming frequently as the oil rises to the surface. When done, remove to a platter and set aside to cool. Strain the liquid and reserve it for use as chicken stock. Shred the chicken meat and discard the skin and bones.;
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Roughly chop the walnuts and then gently toast in a dry skillet over medium heat until they brown and are slightly fragrant. Season walnuts with salt once they are finished toasting. Add the walnuts, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, celery, parsley, olive oil, and salt and pepper, to taste, in a large mixing bowl and combine. Fold in the shredded chicken and set aside while you prepare the bread.
  • Toast the bread in a hot oven until golden. Smear each piece with a little butter and then a tablespoon of cranberry sauce over 4 of the pieces. Lay the 4 cranberry-smeared pieces out on a sheet tray and top each piece with 2 to 3 slices of thick-cut brie. Pop this back in the oven for a minute or 2 so the cheese is slightly melted and creamy. Remove from the oven and top with a few slices of green apple. Top with a scoop of the chicken salad and cover with the other half of the bread to complete the sandwich. Serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your salad. Look for ripe, seasonal produce and high-quality cheese.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is tough and dry. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
  • Let the chicken cool completely before adding it to the salad: This will help to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a light dressing: A heavy dressing will overpower the delicate flavors of the chicken and brie. A simple vinaigrette or lemon-herb dressing is a good option.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Chicken brie salad is best eaten fresh. The flavors will start to meld together after a few hours, but the salad is still delicious the next day.

Conclusion:

Chicken brie salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or light lunch. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy brie, savory chicken, and crisp greens, chicken brie salad is a surefire crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try!
