Essential Ingredients- 1 block Tofu (approx. 300g)
- 1/2 Tomato
- 2 Romaine Lettuce leaves
- 2 slices Processed Cheese
- 1 can Chicken Breast (approx. 150g)
Sauce Ingredients- 3 Tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1.5 Tbsp Mustard
- Pinch of Salt
- Pinch of Black Pepper
- 3 Tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1.5 Tbsp Mustard
- Pinch of Salt
- Pinch of Black Pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare all your ingredients. Cut the tofu into 4 equal pieces, about 1.5cm thick. Slice the tomato thinly. Cut each slice of cheese in half. Wash the romaine lettuce leaves and pat them dry.
Step 2
Lightly sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the tofu pieces and let them sit for 10 minutes. This helps to draw out excess moisture, making the tofu firmer and more flavorful when cooked. After 10 minutes, use a kitchen towel to thoroughly pat the tofu dry.
Step 3
Drain the canned chicken breast thoroughly using a sieve to remove excess oil. In a bowl, combine the drained chicken breast with mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly coated. Feel free to add herbs or finely chopped onion for extra flavor.
Step 4
Heat a lightly oiled non-stick pan over medium heat. Grill the tofu pieces until they are golden brown and slightly crispy on both sides. Cooking over medium heat allows the tofu to heat through while developing a pleasant crisp exterior.
Step 5
Now it’s time to assemble your sandwich! Place a slice of cheese on one side of the grilled tofu. Layer with tomato slices, romaine lettuce, and a generous portion of the prepared chicken breast mixture. Top with the other piece of grilled tofu. Your hearty and healthy chicken breast and tofu sandwich is now ready to enjoy!
