Ingredients
- 1/3 cup vegetable stock
- 1 cup packed basil leaves
- A handful fresh flat-leaf parsley
- A handful fresh mint leaves
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 large clove garlic, peeled
- Kosher salt
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
- 4 ripe plum tomatoes, seeded and sliced lengthwise into thin strips
- 1 small red onion or 1/2 medium onion, very thinly sliced or chopped
- 1 rotisserie chicken
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 sesame sub rolls, split
- Olive oil and herb potato chips, for serving
Directions
Combine vegetable stock with herbs in food processor. Turn processor on and stream in the extra-virgin olive oil. Finely chop the garlic then mash into a paste with some salt using the flat side of your knife. Transfer basil dressing to a salad bowl and stir in the garlic paste along with the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Add the tomatoes, and onions. Remove the skin from the chicken and chop or shred into bite-size pieces to yield about 4 cups. Add the chicken to the salad bowl and season with black pepper. Toss the salad and adjust seasonings. Fill sub rolls with the chicken salad and serve with a few olive oil chips alongside.

Very good especially for a hot day! My guests were impressed despite it being a sub sandwich. Will try with pasta as people below have suggested next time. Also didn't have mint or parsley and it tasted just fine without.

We enjoyed this recipe...since I decided to try this last minute, I had to use only fresh basil from my garden (did not have the mint or parsley. Bright/fresh flavor- I'm wondering about passing on the sandwich and tossing this with penne sometime....
