Steps

Prepare Chicken

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, season with salt and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until fully cooked through. Let it cool, then shred or cut into small pieces.

Make Filling

In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken with mayonnaise, finely diced celery, and red onion. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.

Assemble Baguette

Slice the baguette lengthwise, but not all the way through, to create a pocket. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on both sides of the baguette (optional). Layer with lettuce leaves and tomato slices, then generously fill with the chicken mixture. Serve immediately.

Extra Tips

► You can prepare the chicken in advance, making the baguette assembly even quicker.

► Experiment with different spices in the chicken filling, such as curry powder or garlic powder.

► Toast the inside of the baguette with a little butter before filling for extra crispiness.
