Ingredients

  • Leftover chicken to taste
  • Arugula to taste
  • 4 slices tomato
  • 1/2 avocado sliced
  • 4 slices bread

Herb Mayo:

  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • Juice of 1/2 lime
  • 4 large leaves fresh basil chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tablespoon shallot chopped
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Prepare the mayo by chopping the herbs and shallot and combining all the herb mayo ingredients together thoroughly (I just used a spoon). You can eat it right away or chill for an hour so the flavors blend more.
  • Toast bread if desired. Assemble the sandwich with the herb mayo, chicken, tomato, avocado, and arugula. Cut in half diagonally and enjoy!
