BANH MI



Banh Mi image

A Vietnamese sandwich, made with chicken and full of pickled vegetables. My husband works around a lot of Vietnamese restaurants, and I was making him bring me home these tasty sandwiches. Finally I attempted to make one, and found that my recipe was even better than the restaurants, mainly because I used chicken breast and fresher ingredients. I also love the pickled vegetables, so I made sure there was plenty of those.

Time 50m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup rice vinegar
¼ cup water
¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup carrot, cut into 1/16-inch-thick matchsticks
¼ cup white (daikon) radish, cut into 1/16-inch-thick matchsticks
¼ cup thinly sliced white onion
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast half
garlic salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
1 (12 inch) French baguette
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
¼ cup thinly sliced cucumber
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro leaves
1 small jalapeno pepper - seeded and cut into 1/16-inch-thick matchsticks
1 wedge lime

Steps:

  • Place rice vinegar, water, and sugar into a saucepan over medium heat, bring to a boil, and stir until the sugar has dissolved, about 1 minute. Allow the mixture to cool.
  • Pour the cooled vinegar mixture over the carrot, radish, and onion in a bowl, and allow to stand for at least 30 minutes. Drain off the excess vinegar mixture after the vegetables have marinated.
  • While the vegetables are marinating, preheat the oven's broiler, and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Lightly oil a slotted broiler pan.
  • Sprinkle the chicken breast with garlic salt and pepper, and broil on slotted broiler pan, turning once, until the center of the chicken breast is no longer pink and the surface has browned, about 6 minutes per side. Remove the broiled chicken, and slice into bite-size pieces.
  • Slice the baguette in half the long way, and pull the center of the bread out of the baguette halves, leaving a cavity for the filling. Place the baguette halves under the broiler to lightly toast, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • To assemble the bahn mi sandwich, spread each half of the toasted baguette with mayonnaise, and fill the cavity of the bottom half of the bread with broiled chicken, cucumber slices, pickled carrot, onion, and radish, cilantro leaves, and jalapeno pepper. Squeeze a wedge of lime over the filling, and top with the other half of the baguette.

BANH MI VIETNAMESE SANDWICHES (BáNH MI)

These are excellent and rival anything you would get at a Vietnamese sandwich shop. If you use sourdough for the baguette, it gives it a nice tang. Feel free to use meat leftover from another meal, especially one that contained Asian flavors. Thanks to Mersaydees for putting this recipe in her best of 2008 cookbook and Nancy for including this in her best of 2017!

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (or medallions of pork or other meat, marinated in satay, below, or other Asian marinade)
1 carrot, thinly sliced lengthwise
1 daikon radish, 4 inch piece, thinly sliced lengthwise
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons sugar, divided use
3 tablespoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons water
1 small baguette, cut into 3 sections, sliced lengthwise, with centers hollowed out
mayonnaise or light mayonnaise
soy sauce
fresh cilantro
1/2 cucumber (shredded or thinly sliced lengthwise)
1 jalapeno, seeded, cut into matchsticks (or use a serrano or add some seeds, if you want it hot)
2 tablespoons mirin
1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon sweet chili sauce
1/2 tablespoon teriyaki sauce
1 tablespoon sake
1 green onion, white part only, sliced

Steps:

  • If using satay marinade, combine ingredients, and marinate meat at least 2 hours in the refrigerator.
  • Sprinkle carrot and daikon with salt and 1 teaspoon of the sugar and toss with fingers.
  • Let sit about 3 minutes, until softened (they should be bendable but still crunchy). Rinse and drain.
  • Mix vinegar, water, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Add carrot and daikon, and let marinate at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
  • Grill meat until done and slice.
  • Lightly toast bread. Spread lightly with mayonnaise and sprinkle on soy sauce. Fill with cilantro, carrot, daikon, cucumber, meat and jalapeno. Close and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh fish. Mahi-mahi is a delicate fish, so it's important to use fresh, high-quality fillets. Look for fillets that are firm and have a mild, briny smell.
  • Marinate the fish. Marinating the fish in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the fish gently. Mahi-mahi is a quick-cooking fish, so it's important to cook it gently over medium heat. Overcooking will make the fish dry and tough.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. Banh mi sandwiches are traditionally made with a variety of pickled and fresh vegetables. Some common vegetables include carrots, daikon radish, cucumber, and cilantro.
  • Use a good quality bread. The bread is an important part of a banh mi sandwich. Look for a baguette or other type of crusty bread that will hold up to the fillings.

Conclusion:

Mahi-mahi banh mi sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make Vietnamese dish. They are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying sandwich that is sure to please everyone.
