Big deal, you say? It’s 19 degrees below zero. With the wind, it feels like it’s 37 degrees below zero.
He’s a good guy, the hubby. So I made him a sammich, too.
I love chicken sandwiches, but I don’t like the usual grilled chicken variety. They’re unwieldy; you take one bite and the whole piece of chicken falls out. Very inelegant. And, as we all know, I’m quite refined. I’ve won awards. One, anyway. If Most Poised in the 1984 Little Miss North Dakota pageant counts.
The solution? Chop your chicken first.
I also cooked my chicken in a cast iron pan so I could keep chopping my chicken with a metal spatula as it cooked. Plus, I felt like a professional cook in a real sandwich shop. Yup, I was slingin’ chicken like a pro.
