This takes chicken sandwiches to a whole different level. I couldn't bare to throw away the marinade so I cooked it really well until it was fairly thick and spooned that on the buns. (unfortunately I didn't have any onion rolls- but the hamburger buns worked perfectly!) The chicken breasts were enormous so I only used two and it was enough to feed the three of us plus a little extra for tomorrows lunch. I really enjoyed this unique sandwich!
