Grilled Chicken Sandwiches With Roasted Pepper Aioli Food

AIOLI CHICKEN SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Roast the red pepper: Slice it in half and seed it, then place down on a foil lined baking sheet with the outside of the pepper up. Put under a broiler at 500 degrees for 8 minutes or until black charred and blistery.
• Remove pepper from oven and wrap the foil that lined the baking sheet all around the pepper so that no steam can escape. Let it steam for about 10 minutes (out of the oven), this will help soften it and allow for easier peeling. After 10 minutes remove foil and peel the charred skin off the pepper and slice into strips.
• While the pepper is broiling, heat oil in a saute pan, and once heated, add the butter. Then dash some garlic powder in the pan and stir.
• Pound chicken breasts to about 1/2 inch of thickness and rub with salt and pepper.
• Add chicken to saute pan once butter is melted. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
• After pepper comes out of broiler, leave it on and place bread slices on a baking sheet. Broil until just crispy and a nice light brown color emerges. Then flip the bread, place the manchego cheese on half the slices, and put back under the broiler so the cheese melts and the other side of the bread gets toasty. Each side should only be a minute or two.
• Make the garlic aioli by whisking all of the ingredients for it in a small bowl.
• Spread garlic aioli on the non cheesed bread slices.
• When chicken is cooked through, slice and place on the bread with the cheese. Top with slices of roasted red pepper and cover with other bread slice.

CHICKEN AIOLI SANDWICH

Steps:

• Combine the ginger, garlic, green onions, chile flakes, and peanut oil. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and place in a small roasting pan or on a baking sheet. Roast the chicken for 15 to 20 minutes, or until cooked through. Cut the chicken crosswise into very thin slices.
• Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
• Slice the rolls horizontally and place on a baking sheet with the top half cut-side down and the bottom half with cut-side up. Place 1 slice of provolone on the bottom half of each roll. Cook until the cheese is melted and the rolls are lightly toasted, about 3 minutes.
• Place 1/4 of the chicken on top of the melted cheese. Top with romaine lettuce, tomato, and red onions. Spread some of the Aioli on the top half of the roll and place the roll on top of the sandwich.
• In a food processor or blender, combine the garlic, basil, egg yolks, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard and process to combine. With the machine running, add the oil in a slow, steady stream until it is all added and the mixture is emulsified. Add the lemon juice and check the seasoning.

GRILLED CHICKEN SANDWICHES WITH ROASTED PEPPER AIOLI

Steps:

• Working with one chicken breast half at a time, place it between 2 sheets of waxed paper and, using a meat pounder, pound to an even thickness of 3/4" thick. Season on both sides with salt and pepper. Place in a nonreactive dish large enough to hold them in a single layer. Add the lemon juice, olive oil and thyme. Turn the breasts over several times to coat. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let marinate at room temperature for 1 hour or refrigerate overnight.
• To make aioli, preheat a broiler (grill). Set the bell pepper on a baking sheet and place in the broiler about 6inches from the heat source. Broil (grill) turning with tongs, until skin is blistered and charred black on all sides, about 15 minute Enclose the pepper in a paper bag and let cool completely.
• If broiling the chicken, leave the broiler on. If grilling the chicken, prepare a charcoal or gas grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat. Oil the grill rack.
• Remove the stem from the pepper and discard. Slit the pepper open, then remove and discard seeds and ribs. Remove the blackened skin with a small knife or your fingers. Coarsely chop the pepper. In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted pepper, egg yolk, garlic, lemon juice, mustard, tomato paste, parsley, salt and pepper. Process until pureed. With the motor running, add the olive oil drop by drop. As the mixture begins to emulsify, add the oil in a slow, steady stream. Continue to process until the aioli is thick and has the consistency of mayonnaise. The aioli can be made a day ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
• By Broiler: Remove chicken breasts from the marinade and arrange in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil until lightly browned, 3-5 minutes. Turn and broil until lightly browned on the second sides and firm to the touch, 3-5 minute Transfer to a plate.
