Another use for leftover turkey or chicken

Continuing on my new plan to cook from what is in the fridge, Tony ( mr kim chi maker ) came over for lunch and we had this leftover turkey from one of our turkey injection tests. We also had some bread from the weekend and cheddar cheese.

the meat is toasted a bit in a pan with thyme

We tore the meat into pieces, and grilled them in a little oil and sprinkled some dried thyme on them.

When making grilled sandwiches, i don’t oil the bread, i pour some oil into the pan and swirl the bread into the oil, kinda spreading the oil around the whole piece of bread. I also don’t use a lot, maybe a teaspoon per side.I use a thick bottom pan or a cast iron pan/griddle

We also made a simple salad of greens and apples. yum.

A real decadent treat is to grill your sandwiches in olive oil. I also like to spread brown or deli mustard any grilled sandwich. Batampte is a big favorite of mine.
