Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 whole skinless boneless chicken breast (about 3/4 pound), halved
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/3 cup drained bottled roasted red peppers, cut into thin strips
2 kaiser rolls, split and toasted
1 small bunch arugula, washed well and spun dry

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towels. In a small bowl combine chicken and lemon juice and marinate, turning once, 10 minutes.
  • On a sheet of wax paper combine flour, fennel seeds, and salt and pepper to taste. Remove chicken from bowl, letting excess lemon juice drip into bowl, and reserve lemon juice. Dredge chicken in flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  • In a 10-inch non-stick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté chicken about 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Turn chicken and cook over moderate heat 5 minutes more, or until opaque and cooked through. Transfer chicken to a cutting board. To skillet add roasted pepper strips and reserved lemon juice and simmer until most of liquid is evaporated, about 2 minutes.
  • Slice chicken thin. Make sandwiches on rolls with arugula, chicken, and roasted pepper strips.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sandwich turned out dry and bland. I think I might have overcooked the chicken.

Overall, I thought this recipe was a good starting point. I made a few changes to suit my own taste, but I think it's a solid recipe.

This sandwich was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less lemon.

I'm not a huge fan of roasted peppers, but I still enjoyed this sandwich. The lemon chicken was delicious and the bread was perfectly toasted.
