Hot Southern Fried Chicken Baguette

What is it?

Warm baguette filled with southern fried chicken pieces and salad, served hot rather than from the cold sandwich cabinet. Seasoned coating gives the chicken its crunch, the same style you'll find on goujons, and comes tucked into a split baguette with crisp salad for contrast. Expect a decent amount of filling relative to bread, with the fried coating holding up reasonably well inside the roll. Lettuce and other salad leaves add a cool, fresh element that works against the hot, seasoned chicken. It's one of the heavier handheld options in the hot food range, built more for a proper lunch than a light snack. Eat it soon after buying, before the steam from the chicken softens the crust too much.
