A Cure for the Common Cold Cuts….. (Part 2)

This culinary delight features flavorful rotisserie chicken, sliced deli-thin and piled high, topped with sweet honey ham, along with lots of melted Swiss cheese and a tangy mustard sauce on toasty bread… mmmmm. The Chicken Malibu Sandwich is my favorite, as well as that of my youngest daughter. And it was always a best-seller when I owned Aunt B’s Cafe. Just one bite, and you’ll know why!

Of course, many of you will immediately recognize its distinctive nod in flavor profile to a certain similarly named menu item at a popular chain restaurant. And, just like its namesake, this Chicken Malibu Sandwich is big on both flavor and popularity.

One great thing about this sandwich is that its ingredients are items commonly found in many of y’all’s fridges most of the time. If you don’t have the rotisserie chicken lunchmeat (although I suggest you try it, because it’s pretty great), feel free to substitute the, more common, oven-roasted turkey. And the sauce is so crazy delicious, it’s hard to believe it’s just mayonnaise and yellow mustard!

I, personally, prefer this sandwich on a croissant, but it’s also fine on just about any other bread you might have on hand. I made one recently on sweet Hawaiian bread, and it was positively delish. So don’t wait! Go whip up a Chicken Malibu Sandwich right now!
