This exact sandwich isn’t something that I was able to actually find in Gaston’s cookbook, there are very similar sandwiches though in the book. This one is sort of my version, something that I make at home often. My family loves these little sandwiches. Usually, they're made with turkey breast or ham but at home, I make them with chicken breast. They are a common street food item, called Butifarra’s.
They are amazing and so easy for you to make at home as well. Finding Crema de Ají may be a little hard but I’ve linked it here from amazon, you can order some from there if you’d like to try it. The price is a little high, and if you were to eat them without the ají sauce with only mayo it would still be very delicious.
What You Will Need (makes four sandwiches):
4 small individual size ciabatta rolls
1 avocado (sliced)
2 chicken breasts
garnishes:
Mayo
Crema de ají
How To Make Them:
Grill up the chicken and season with Lawry’s seasoning salt, or just salt and pepper. Let the chicken sit for a few moments after cooking and then slice it into small thin slices.
Cut each roll in half, and evenly place an even layer of chicken and then avocado across each roll, then top with the salsa and then the creams.
Enjoy!
