Coles southern fried chicken and homemade coleslaw grilled cheese sandwich

#covidlife #workfromhome

Doing teleconferences from home today.

This sandwich is the bomb. I mentioned this as an option last night when I cooked a piece of Coles southern fried chicken thigh.

Ingredients

• Coles southern fried chicken thigh burgers
• Cole Pane Di Casa
• Red cabbage
• Red onion
• Drumhead cabbage
• Carrot
• Parsley
• Mint
• Kewpie mayonnaise
• Mersey Valley pickled onion cheese
• Lurpak butter

Instructions

Coles southern fried chicken

• Heat an oven toaster or even a full oven to 200 °C (or 180 °C if the oven is fan-forced).
• Place a rack over a baking tray and lay a piece of the chicken thigh on the rack.
• Put the chicken in the oven for 30 minutes, turning the chicken over halfway through.
• If all goes well, the chicken will be golden in colour.

Coleslaw

• Slice the red cabbage and drumhead cabbage with the mandolin while wearing a safety glove.
• With a vegetable peeler, create thin slices of carrot.
• Slice the red onion with the mandolin while wearing a safety glove.
• Chop the parsley and mint with a sharp knife.
• Put the red and drumhead cabbage, carrot, red onion, parsley, and mint into a mixing bowl and mix through a large squirt of kewpie mayonnaise.

Sandwich

• Butter the butt.
• Add some cheese.
• Add some coleslaw.
• Lay the chicken on the coleslaw.
• Butter the top.
• Add some cheese to the buttered top.
• Put the top on the chicken.
• Tie the sandwich together to secure it when you grill it with cooking twine.
• Spread mayonnaise on the outer surface of the butt.
• Heat up a cast-iron skillet until it gets close to smoking hot.
• Add a little high smoke point oil to the skillet. I use Queensland nut oil.
• Lay the sandwich into the cast-iron skillet butt down.
• While the sandwich is grilling, spread mayonnaise on the outer surface of the top.
• Once the butt is golden brown and crispy, turn the sandwich over and cook the top until it too is golden brown and crispy.
• Remove the sandwich from the skillet and put it on a plate and cut it in half. 
• Add the rest of the homemade coleslaw to the plate.
• Eat that sandwich and savour every morsel of this heavenly sandwich.
• You won’t regret this sandwich.
• It’s so good.
