Here’s the gist, growing up in Pakistan my brothers favorite food was club sandwich which he didn’t like to share but always ended up sharing because I’d stare at him with my puppy dog little sister eyes.
When we moved to the States we majorly missed the good old street style Pakistani club sandwich. My mom being an amazing cook started making these more often for us. Even though I have been cooking since I was 11, I didn’t cook everything and everyday. I cooked twice a week before I got married, and that didn’t include sandwiches. When I got married was when I started cooking more foods that reminded me of my childhood or home, so after I got married one day I called up my mom and asked her to give me the recipe for just the chicken because everything else is basically pretty self explanatory.
Please give this recipe a shot, they are perfect for tea time or a lunch party and sure to be a crowd pleaser at an office party. They are best served at room temperature.
