How To Make a Spicy Chicken Sandwich
- Start by fermenting your spicy cilantro lime sauerkraut. This recipe has become a favorite at Cultures For Health. It is light and spicy and packed full of flavor.
- Complete your basic sourdough recipe for the bread of your spicy chicken sandwich.
- Next, marinate your chicken in the spicy yogurt marinade for chicken.
- Allow your chicken to marinate for 1 to 4 hours—1 hour if you are in a rush to start dinner and 4 hours if you really want that spicy kick in your sandwich.
- While the chicken is marinating, make your kefir cheese spicy sandwich spread.
- After the chicken has marinated, cook it whatever way you prefer.
- Assemble the gut-healthy spicy chicken sandwich—kefir cheese spread on the sourdough, chicken placed lovingly, then topped with sauerkraut and fermented peppers.
Now you are all set to create this classic spicy chicken sandwich with that gut-healthy twist. We hope you enjoy trying it out. Share your results with us on Instagram at @culturesforhealth.
