Chicken Masala Sandwich Recipe

Chicken masala sandwich recipe, an Indian style chicken sandwich; which is filling and super easy to make. This masala chicken sandwich is one of my sons favourite and I usually make this as an after school snack for him. The sandwich is great for kids lunch box too.

You can also add in some veggies, if your kids are fussy with vegetables; grated carrots works perfect or finely chopped capsicum or tomatoes. Try adding some boiled corns or green peas to the chicken mix while sautéing  the masala.

Vegetarians, you can make this with paneer; just add crumbled paneer instead of chicken and a nice protein rich and filling sandwich will be ready in minutes.

I know it is very unusual to add turmeric in chicken sandwich; but believe me; I am experiencing the benefits of turmeric since my thyroid surgery in August 2014. I have started including turmeric in my diet more in the form of tea, in smoothies, sprinkled it on egg fry...I mean sprinkle it on everything. Include in kids diet. I am still experimenting with and the results are awesome.  I basically have it as a simple tea with turmeric and cinnamon and when I started feeling awesome I started using it everyday and in the course of time, ginger is added to it . Well, that is a long topic to discuss and I am thinking of starting another channel with low calorie recipes and some remedies which has helped me though I frankly dont know when I will start, but yes, I may post soon. Anyways keep watching and always add turmeric in your daily diet.
