New Meal Monday: Panko Breaded Chicken with BBQ Sauce on Bun

Nick is a list maker.  He is always carrying around a piece of folded paper, taking notes, writing down ideas, plotting his world take over.  His list making extends to our grocery shopping.  We make a menu for the week (from the list of meals he has complied) make a grocery list, and hit the store…with a strict stick to the list policy. (I on the other hand get distracted by the shiny sparkly objects on the shelves at the store)

Last week while list making Nick suggested chicken sandwiches.  What kind of chicken sandwiches I implored.  He apparently had a vision, of chicken and bbq sauce on a bun

This is what we came up with

This week's selection: Panko Breaded Chicken with BBQ Sauce on Bun

This week's verdict: not quite the vision Nick had, but a good flavor

This week's maybe next time: cut the chicken breast thinner.   As much as we liked chomping into a 1.5 inch thick piece of chicken that took FOREVER to cook, our jaws only unhinge so much.
