Chicken Sandwich with Peppers and Herbs

Step 1

Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips and mince the red chili (remove seeds for less heat). Slice the tomato into rounds.

Step 2

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add the bell pepper and chili, cook until softened and slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Season with salt.

Step 3

Shred the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Add to the skillet with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, toss to warm through, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Toast the sesame buns in the same skillet or a toaster until golden, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

Layer the bottom buns with mixed greens, tomato slices, the warm chicken-pepper mixture, and top with the other bun half. Serve immediately.

Step 6

Optional: add a squeeze of lemon or a dollop of mayo for extra flavor.
