Naan Sandwiches March 21, 2010

Need a quick, tasty meal for lunch or dinner?  These sandwiches are filling and delicious.  This recipe can be made with conventional or organic ingredients.  Since I’m on a mission to remove chemicals from my food, I’ve chosen organic.  Feel free to substitute where needed.  Okay…let’s get started.

Ingredients

Ingredients

You will need olive oil, 1 red onion, 1 red pepper, 1 yellow pepper, Cajun seasoning, 1 cup cooked chicken (I buy a rotisserie chicken and use it for other recipes during the week), 4 pieces of Naan (I always use Garlic Naan, but any variety will work).

Before you get started, cook your naan according to the directions on the back of the package.  Next, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat.  Slice the onion, yellow pepper, and red pepper into thin strips.

Toss the veggies in the olive oil to coat.  Add 1-2 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning (I use Toni’s and some Red Pepper).  You’ll be able to add more seasoning later if you need a little extra kick to your sandwich.  Saute over medium heat until the onions begin to turn stringy, stirring occasionally to make sure you don’t burn your delicious vegetables.

Add in the chicken and mix with your cooked veggies.  Continue to cook over medium heat for an additional 3-4 minutes while the chicken soaks up the flavor.  Add more spices at this point if needed.  That means you get to have a taste test!

Add your chicken and veggie mixture to your cooked naan and dig in.
