Pickle relish sparks the flavor of the chicken salad in these grilled sandwiches shared by Ruth Peterson of Jenison, Michigan. They are especially good with the easy cheese sauce. Ingredients:
1 cup cubed cooked chicken |
1/2 cup finely chopped celery |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
2 to 3 tablespoons sweet pickle relish, drained |
2 teaspoons finely chopped onion |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
12 bread slices, crusts removed |
1 egg |
2/3 cup milk |
1 to 2 tablespoons butter |
cheese sauce: |
8 ounces process cheese (velveeta), cubed |
1/3 cup milk |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the chicken, celery, mayonnaise, relish, onion, lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Spread over half of the bread; top with remaining bread. In a shallow bowl, whisk egg, milk and remaining salt. Dip both sides of sandwiches in egg mixture. 2. In a large skillet or on a griddle, melt butter over medium heat; grill sandwiches on both sides until golden brown. 3. Meanwhile, combine cheese sauce ingredients in saucepan; cook and stir over low heat until cheese is melted. Serve as a dipping sauce with sandwiches. Yield: 6 servings. |
