Clucking Pulled Pork Sandwich
- 1 whole Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
- 3 dashes Spice Rub (I Have A Recipe For One With My Eye Round Sandwiches)
- 2 Tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Deli Mustard
- 2 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
- 1 dash Red Pepper Flakes
- 1 whole Hamburger Bun Or Soft, Round Roll, Sliced In Half Horizontally
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Place the chicken breast on a rectangle of tin foil.
- Coat the chicken with the spice rub completely, forming a thin layer.
- My spice rub, as I mentioned above, is contained in the recipe for my Eye Round Sandwiches with Drippings Mornay Sauce, and is the one I like to use.
- But any good spice rub will do.
- Once the chicken has been coated with the spice rub, fold up the edges of the tin foil all the way around to form a box with sides about 2 inches tall or more.
- Put the packet on a baking sheet if you like.
- Bake the chicken for 30 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Place the breast, and all of the juices that are in the tin foil, in an individual gratin dish or some other small, shallow, personal-sized baking dish.
- It doesnt matter all that much exactly what you use.
- Using a fork, roughly shred the chicken.
- In a small bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, and red pepper flakes.
- Pour it over the chicken and toss the shredded chicken in the sauce using the forks.
- Place the entire little dish, chicken inside, in a sheet of tin foil, folded up as described before, just in case your baking vessel isnt quite big enough.
- Bake for an additional ten minutes, just to infuse the chicken with the wet ingredients.
- Once the chicken is out of the oven you can toast your bun.
- Some people like it toasted, some people dont.
- I consider myself in the middle, at least as far as pulled pork, pulled chicken, burnt end, and other such sandwiches go.
- (For burgers Im a definite toaster, but thats a conversation for another day.)
- I toast the bun just briefly, before it begins to color, but once the interior has been dried out.
- I like when the juices of the meat seep into the bread and cause it to turn soft and almost creamy.
- Top the bun with the chicken.
- Enjoy!
