Grilled Chicken Reubens

I had chicken reubens on my menu this summer on a day that was supposed to be raining. When the rain didn't appear and we were all ready to be out of the house I slapped the reubens together and decided that we would try them on one of the barbeque grills at the park. It worked out really, really well and I now have another quick meal that we can pack and tote to the park with us.

For the chicken: if you are grilling earlier in the week go ahead and toss on a couple chicken breasts. Or save some if you've roasted a chicken. Or buy some oven roasted chicken breast in the deli meat section at the grocery...


Grilled Chicken Reubens

Fab Food Friday 110


Chicken Breast
Rye Bread
Swiss Cheese slices
saurkraut, drained and squeezed dry
1/3 c mayo
2 T ketchup

Mix the ketchup and mayo to make your dressing.
Make sure your kraut is dry otherwise it will make the bread wet. (not so good)
Build sandwich: bread, cheese, chicken, dressing, bread.
Wrap tightly in foil.

When you are ready to grill just place the foil wrapped sandwiches over the coals for about 10 minutes per side (less if your coals are really, really hot). You want the cheese melted and the bread beginning to toast.

Mmmmm...

You can make these in the oven, too... No foil necessary.
Turn on your broiler and have the rack about 4 inches from the heat. Build in the same way. Broil about 2 minutes per side.
