Ingredients To Make Apricot Brie Chicken Sandwiches

Ingredient Notes

Bread - arguably the most important ingredient! You will want to use a high-quality bread such as sourdough, ciabatta or light rye. If you are feeling ambitious, I would highly recommend making this homemade no-knead bread from scratch! It is easy, tastes amazing and makes a perfect pair for this sandwich. Not feeling bread? You can use these easy flour tortillas or even lettuce cups, instead!
Chicken - Make this juicy roasted spatchcock chicken and have leftovers for a few days!
Apricot Preserves - Apricot preserves are a great condiment to keep in your fridge. They can be used in a variety of dishes and can make a great sweet addition in lots of recipes. Some other recipes that we like to use apricot preserves in are these apricot turkey meatballs, or even on these spinach and feta turkey burgers, it tastes amazing!
Arugula - Can be substituted for spinach or a leaf lettuce.
Brie - If you are not a fan of brie cheese, you can substitute it for camembert or a good mozzarella.

Making the sandwiches

We have all made a sandwich before, even if it is just a PB & J, it counts! And believe it or not, this sandwich isn't much more difficult.

Apricot preserves spread on a piece of sourdough bread.

Step 1

The very first thing you need to do is turn the broiler on your oven on "high" and grab a baking sheet. Then you'll want to round up all the ingredients. Chop the onions, slice the cheese, select the perfect bread, and cook the chicken.

Start with two slices of bread (slightly toasted, if preferred) on one of the pieces of bread, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise, or if you are feeling an extra fancy sandwich, use this roasted garlic and thyme aioli! On top of that, add a handful of arugula and set aside.

On the other slice of bread, spread a thick layer of apricot preserves. Then layer on a layer of cooked chicken, top that with the onions, and lastly add the slices of brie cheese.

Two sandwiches, right after the brie cheese was melted under the broiler in the oven.

Step 2

Place the piece of bread with the chicken and cheese on it onto the baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes, just until the cheese is melted.

Step 3

After the cheese has melted, remove it from the oven and place the slice of bread onto a plate.

Now you just pile it all together. Flop the piece of bread with the arugula on it on top of the piece with the melted cheese and chicken, and whala!

Now cut that sandwich in half and dig in!

Storing leftovers

Leftovers are best stored unassembled and then assembled when you are ready to eat the sandwich. If you are storing an already prepared and assembled sandwich, make sure the sandwich is completely at room temperature and wrap it tightly with plastic wrap. Store in the refrigerator and enjoy within 2 days.
