Method
- 1
Make the honey balsamic glaze by mixing the honey and balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan, whisking frequently until thickened.
- 2
Make the Calabrian chili pepper spread by either chopping the canned (or fresh) Calabrian chilis with a knife or crushing with a mortar and pestle. Then mix together with some extra virgin olive oil.
- 3
Roughly chop the rapini then mince some garlic.
- 4
Saute the rapini and garlic with some red chili flakes, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
- 5
You should butterfly a chicken breast into two halves but I was a barbarian and used two whole chicken breasts.
- 6
Pound the chicken breasts (if butterflying, do that first).
- 7
Begin heating the high smoking point oil for frying the chicken breasts.
- 8
Mix together flour and seasonings of your choosing on a plate.
- 9
Mix together eggs and milk in a wide bowl.
- 10
Use either seasoned breadcrumbs or make your own seasoned breadcrumbs by mixing breadcrumbs with seasoning. You can even make your own breadcrumbs with dried bread. Amazing!
- 11
Dredge the chicken breasts in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs. I like to push the breadcrumbs into the chicken a little bit and freezing them for 20 minutes can help make the breading adhere to the chicken.
- 12
Fry the chicken breasts in hot oil.
- 13
Drain the chicken breasts on a wire rack or paper towels.
- 14
Cut the Big Loaf of Ciabatta Bread in half lengthwise
- 15
Put the Calabrian chili spread on the bottom slice of bread
- 16
Add the fried chicken breasts
- 17
Add half the package of prosciutto
- 18
Crumble two balls of burratta
- 19
Add the rapini (broccoli rabe)
- 20
Add the other half of the prosciutto
- 21
Drizzle the honey balsamic glaze on top of the prosciutto, then press the bread down on top to get it on the bread too
- 22
Open the sandwich back up and add the roasted red peppers
- 23
Eat the whole entire thing in one sitting - Homegrown and Homemade hazing
Notes
- • This is the most intense and intricate sandwich I have ever created in my whole life. Thus I have named it after my bloodline.
