Lemon herb chicken sandwich with grilled veges

Bought quite a bit of fresh veges from Jusco the other day...and since we were running low on rice, we decided to go on some sandwich meals.

Whipped up this dish based on the lemon basil chicken my sister made for me during ITP last year...modified here and there based on what I'd think would be delish...and turned out it was :P ..would have been better if I had baguette or maybe even croissant...

Here's the rough recipe of it. No picture cuz we were too hungry.

Lemon and Herb Chicken Sandwich with Grilled Vegetables

Bread

The meaties
1 chicken keel, sliced
1/2 lemon juice and rind
herbs (I used dried basil and thyme)
salt and black pepper
1 small yellow onion, chopped finely
3 cloves garlic, crushed and pre-grilled with the veges (optional)

The veges, sliced thinly
1/2 green capsicum
1 tomato
1/2 brinjal
butter
herbs (used dried italian herbs)
black pepper

1. Marinade chicken with all the 'meaties' ingredient except garlic and onion.
2. Grill/bake the veges for about 20 mins. You may like to grill the crushed garlic too before using them for the meaty part.
3. Fry pre-grilled garlic and chopped onions with oil/butter until soft. Add in chicken and fry until onion gets brown-ish and sticks to the pan. Add a bit of water to caramelize the onion. Remove from pan
4. Toast/grill bread (with garlic butter if you like). Assemble sandwich.

p/s: I managed to get QJ to eat brinjals! Yey!!
