I'm always looking for new ways to serve chicken, and these tangy hot sandwiches have become a favorite. My husband and 5-year-old always ask for seconds. Ingredients:
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
2 tablespoons butter, softened |
1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning, divided |
1/4 teaspoon dried basil |
1/8 teaspoon garlic salt |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1-1/2 pounds chicken tenderloins, cut into 1/2-inch strips |
4 italian sandwich buns, split |
1 small red onion, sliced |
4 lettuce leaves |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, 1/4 teaspoon lemon-pepper, basil and garlic salt until smooth; set aside. In another small bowl, combine the oil, lemon juice and remaining lemon-pepper; set aside.
2. Place chicken on a greased broiler pan. Spoon half of lemon juice mixture over top. Broil 3-4 in. from the heat for 4-5 minutes. Turn chicken; top with remaining lemon juice mixture. Broil 4-5 minutes longer or until the chicken juices run clear.
3. Place buns cut side up on an ungreased baking sheet. Broil 3-4 in. from the heat for 1-2 minutes or until golden brown. Spread cut side of each bottom half with 2 tablespoons cream cheese mixture. Layer with chicken, onion and lettuce; replace bun tops. Yield: 4 servings.
