INGREDIENTS

• SANDWICH
• 200g vegan “chicken” style pieces
• 1 tbsp hot sauce (I used tabasco)
• 1 tbsp melted vegan butter
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• salt and pepper to taste
• 4 leaves lettuce
• 4 slices of bread
• 10 thin slices cucumber
• RANCH-STYLE DRESSING
• 100 g Vegan sour cream/creme fraiche (I used the oatly creme fraiche)
• 1 tsp dijon mustard
• 1 clove minced garlic
• 1 sprig fresh dill - chopped
• 1 sprig fresh parsley - chopped
• 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
• salt to taste
• 1 tsp sugar

METHOD

1. Cook the chicken in a lil bit of oil until slightly crispy and heated/cooked all the way through. Mix hot sauce and butter in a bowl and toss until all chicken pieces are coated. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix all ingredients for the dressing in a bowl.
2. Spread a generous layer of dressing on each slice of bread. To two slices, add lettuce and cucumber before piling half of the "chicken" on top. Place the other two slices of bread on top and you have your sandwiches ready to eat! Enjoy.
