BBQ & Ranch Chicken Sandwich Recipe

Today for lunch we had decided on Stir Fry steak and Lettuce Wraps.

I decided I didn't want that, and since I'm the cook I did a complete 360

Chicken.

Not just chicken. BBQ Chicken. Not just BBQ Chicken, but BBQ & Ranch Chicken.

Plus, cheese.

Looks delicious right? WELL IT FREAKN' WAS!!

This is a two step recipe meal

You need to make the roll/bread/slice of heaven and then the chicken.

If you're really wanting bread on the Medifast diet - This is your substitute.

Revolution Rolls

(Great for sandwiches or making a pastry)

Recipe from Sandy's Kitchen

Ingredients:

3 eggs at room temp (1 Lean)

3 tablespoons light cream cheese at room temp (3 Condiments)

A pinch or 1/16 tsp cream of tartar (you can use white vinegar or lemon juice as a substitute)

1 packet splenda (1 Condiment)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Separate egg whites from egg yolks, putting whites in one bowl and yolks in another bowl. Add cream of tartar (or vinegar or lemon juice) to whites. Beat whites on high until stiff peaks form. Set aside.

Add cream cheese and splenda to yolks. Whisk yolk mixture until blended. Gently whisk yolk mixture into whites being careful to not over mix and make the whites fall. On a cookie sheet lined w parchment paper, make six equal sized blobs, not touching.

Bake at 350 for 30 to 35 minutes (Mine cooked in 25 minutes). They are good warm, but awesome cold and can be toasted without problem! Freeze the left overs in plastic wrap or individual sandwich bags or keep them in the fridge for up to 5 daysin a large ziploc bag. Toast them to make them crispy again!

Makes 6 Rolls or 3 servings

2 Rolls is 1/3 Lean and 1.33 Condiments

If using regular cream cheese instead of light cream cheese, 2 rolls is 1/3 Lean, 0.16 Condiments, and 1 Healthy Fat

You need to add 2/3 Lean to your day. You can have:

3.3 oz beef or pork

4 oz of chicken

4.6 oz of shrimp or fish

1 -1/3 cup egg beaters

2 Morning Star Farms Sausage Patties

2 eggs

If you have one roll, you can have:

4.16 oz beef or pork

5 oz of chicken

5.8 oz of shrimp or fish

1 - 2/3 cup egg beaters

So this was my first attempt to make the dough. I failed miserably and had to restart. It's okay though. That's what cooking is all about. You need to make mistakes to learn.

This is what stiff peaks are suppose to look like. We could have beaten' them a bit more, but we were hungry and decided this was good enough.

Next came the whisking of the yolks.

Then you pour in into the whites and pray they don't fold over and stay fluffy.

Make your blobs.

Place in the oven and let them cook. I think next time I'll turn them over so everything gets evenly cooked, or spray Pam on the parchment paper.

They are very fragile and stuck to it like glue.

Now onto the second recipe! The chicken.
