BALTO Sandwich

This is another Mark Sisson (Primal Blue Print) inspired recipe.  It is a super fast lunch idea with a clever bread alternative...chicken!  Don't believe me?  Check it out:



What you need for 2 sandwiches:
2 chicken breasts
4 pieces of bacon (or more!)
1/2 onion, cut into thin rings
1 avocado
1 tomato, sliced
1 romaine leaf, or lettuce of choice (arugula?)

Heat a skillet to medium high.  Lightly oil the skillet.  Cut chicken breasts in half, length wise so they are thin.  Place in hot skillet and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.  You can add salt and pepper while they cook.  I did!

While the chicken is going, place the bacon in the microwave and microwave until nice and crisp (2 to 3 minutes per side?)

After the chicken is done, set it aside and cook the onion rings on high heat in the same pan you just used for the chicken.

While the onions cook slice the tomato and slice the avocado, removing the skin from the avocado.

To assemble:
on one slice of chicken, top with bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato and onions.  Top with the second slice of cooked chicken.  Jonathan likes it with a little mayo; I say go for it!  Salt and pepper to taste.

  2. It does look delicious. And, I would avoid the microwave, it destroys the good things in food and sends out bad rays. Do your own research.
