Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 ribs celery, thinly sliced
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 apple, cut into thin julienne strips
Fresh lemon juice, to taste
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups South-of-Something Chicken with sauce, recipe follows, reheated
4 burger buns
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Two 3 1/2- to 5-pound whole chickens ("roaster" size)
Olive or vegetable oil, as needed
One 28-ounce can chopped tomatoes
6 cloves garlic, chopped
2 cups minced yellow onions

Steps:

  • Combine the olive oil, mustard, celery, scallions and apple in a small bowl. Mix well and season to taste with lemon juice, salt and pepper.
  • Divide the South-of-Something Chicken and sauce among the buns. Top each with some slaw and close to make sandwiches. Serve immediately.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the coriander, smoked paprika, cumin. 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon ground black pepper.
  • Lightly coat the chickens with oil, then sprinkle generously with the salt and spice mixture.
  • Combine the tomatoes, garlic and onions in a large roasting pan and place the two chickens on top, breast-side up. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thigh registers 160 degrees F, about 45 minutes (as the chicken rests, the temperature will rise to 165 degrees F).
  • Transfer the chicken to a large carving board to rest, then place the roasting pan on the stovetop and bring the tomato mixture to a boil. Boil for 1 minute and season to taste with salt and pepper. Puree with a hand blender or transfer to a blender to process until smooth. Reserve the sauce and serve the chicken.
  • After serving the chicken, pull any remaining meat from the bones and mix with the sauce. Freeze in small containers for up to 3 months.

These sandwiches were a huge disappointment. The chicken was bland and the sauce was watery.

The sauce for these sandwiches is way too sweet. I had to add a lot of vinegar to balance it out.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken was dry and tough. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These sandwiches were a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. I'll definitely make them again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.

I'm not a huge fan of pulled chicken, but these sandwiches were actually really good. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the sauce was tangy and sweet.

These pulled chicken sandwiches were a hit at my last party! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the sauce was the perfect balance of tangy and sweet.
