Most epic sandwich in the history of ever.

This weekend we had some wallpaper to strip and we needed some help.  So we did what any sane person does in this situation and bribed our friends with sandwiches and beer.

The tolerant boyfriend bought the beer and I made the sandwich.  It really was the most epic sandwich in the history of ever.  It did lunch for five people.

To make this you will need
  • a loaf of nice bread
  • 2 chicken breasts -cut into strips
  • 2 onions
  • 2 courgettes
  • 2 red peppers
  • 2 yellow peppers
  • 2 balls of mozzarella - sliced
  • jar of pesto
  • 1 bulb of garlic
Pop the peppers directly on to the open gas flame of the hob, turning until they are blackened all over.  Put the peppers into a bowl, cover with clingfilm and set to one side.  After 20 minutes, remove the peppers from the bowl and run under the cold tap.  The blackened skin should slide off.  Dry and cut the peppers in the quarters, removing the seeds.

Cut the onions and courgettes into chunks, drizzle with oil and put in the oven at 180C to roast with the bulb of garlic.  Cook until soft and browning.

Fry off the chicken breasts in a little oil and set to one side to cool.

Cut the top off the loaf of bread and retain.  Scoop out the soft inside (this should be frozen to make breadcrumbs at a later date) and then spread pesto over the inside of the hollowed out loaf.

Pack the ingredients into the loaf in layers, pressing down firmly with the back of a spoon between each layer. When you genuinely can't fit anything else in, spread some pesto over the lid of the loaf and replace on the top.  Wrap in clingfilm and keep in the fridge over night.





Slice into wedges and serve.  Force your friends to fulfill your every whim for ever more.
