CHICKEN SANDWICH WITH WHITE SAUCE

Ingredients

• 2 cups mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup prepared horseradish (this is optional but available at major supermarkets, in the sauces section)
• 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar (available at supermarkets)
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 4 tablespoons salt to taste
• 1 tablespoon ground black pepper to taste
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 2^1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika powder
• 3/4 teaspoon celery seeds
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 whole chicken, quatered
• 8 white or brown hamburger buns (toasted if you prefer)
• Pickles and gherkins, for serving (available at big supermarkets)

Method

1. In a bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, horseradish, vinegar, sugar, 3 teaspoons salt, 1^1/2 teaspoon pepper and cayenne together.
2. Place half the sauce in another bowl; set one aside for basing and one for serving.
3. Mix remaining salt and pepper with paprika, garlic powder, celery seeds, cumin and coriander in a bowl; set this rub aside.
4. Prepare your grill if using the oven or charcoal jiko. Wash the chicken, pat dry with a kitchen towel then season with the rub mixture you had set aside.
5. Place it, skin side up, on the grill grate. Maintaining a temperature of 255^o-250^o (if using a jiko, ensure that the fire is not blazing so that the meat cooks through properly).
6. Cook turning often and basting chicken with sauce every 20 minutes, until a fork inserted in the thigh leaves no liquid coming out of the thigh (about 45 minutes).
7. Remove chicken from grill; set aside, covered loosely with foil, for 10 minutes.
8. When it has cooled sufficiently, shred the chicken meat only with a fork, discarding the bones and skin.
9. Divide chicken strips among the buns and top with the remaining sauce and pickle chips
