How to Make Mom's Ramadan Sandwiches

  1. Use a cookie cutter to cut out 6-8 circles from your bread slices (approx. 3-inch diameter).
  2. Shred 1 cup cooked chicken breast into small pieces.
  3. Prepare the sandwiches: Spread 2 tablespoons mayonnaise on each bread circle. Layer with shredded chicken, 2 slices of tomato, and a few lettuce leaves.
  4. Gently press down on each sandwich to compact the filling. This will help them hold their shape during cooking.
  5. In a shallow dish, whisk 1 egg. In a separate dish, place 1 cup breadcrumbs.
  6. Dip each sandwich into the egg, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere. Completely cover the sides.
  7. Heat 1/4 cup oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the sandwiches for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Alternatively, bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or broil for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and heated through.
