California Chicken Sandwich
I'm off to the grocery in a few minutes to pick up some things for dinner. I came across a recipe for a "California Chicken Sandwich" which is really nothing more than a regular grilled chicken breast sandwich except with a few additional spices and citrus mayonnaise. I'm intrigued by the citrus mayo so it's on the menu for this evening. I don't really have anything good to go with it though so I'm going to get some nice white sweet corn and either potato or macaroni salad. Belinda isn't terribly partial to macaroni salad but I am and just two days ago we had pea salad, which I'm not terribly partial to but she is, so I think macaroni salad it shall be. I would make the really nice dill potato salad that B made last week but we're having that later in the week with out "we're ready for Thanksgiving" chicken and dressing meal.
And a note on dressing. Is it a regional thing where some people say stuffing and others say dressing?
Update: Mayonnaise has a unique texture and consistency. Adding liquid to it just fucks that up. Citrus mayonnaise tastes really, really good but by the time you add 2.5 tablespoons of liquid (in the form of orange juice, lime juice and hot sauce) to a 1/2 cup of mayo that texture is shot to hell and it becomes really, really thin. That's not really a good thing. So the verdict is thumbs up to the flavor of citrus mayo but can anybody tell me how to prevent it from turning into a thin, runny mess. Thanks.

Does it include avocado? Lately, "California" seems to mean Avocado and jack cheese.
Or possibly sprouts.
And it's always stuffing to me. Dressing is what you put on a salad.

It actually does include avocado although I'm not putting avocado on mine.
