Ingredients

Caramelized Onions

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 medium onions, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

Sandwiches

  • 8 Pillsbury™ Home Baked Classics™ Frozen Crusty French Dinner Rolls (from 12.4-oz. pkg.)
  • 8 (1-oz.) slices cooked chicken breast
  • 8 lettuce leaves
  • 8 thin slices tomato
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add onions; cook about 3 minutes or until soft, stirring frequently. Stir in brown sugar, vinegar and soy sauce. Reduce heat to medium; cook 6 to 8 minutes or until onions are deep golden brown and very tender, stirring occasionally.
  • 2
    Meanwhile, bake dinner rolls as directed on package.
  • 3
    To assemble sandwiches, split warm rolls. Layer caramelized onions, chicken, lettuce and tomato on bottom halves of rolls. Spread top halves with mustard; cover sandwiches with top halves of rolls.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Choose leftover cooked chicken, packaged cooked chicken slices or deli-sliced chicken for these delicious sandwiches.
  • tip 2
    Onions will caramelize evenly if they are sliced uniformly.
  • tip 3
    The onions could be caramelized a day ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator. Heat thoroughly in a skillet or microwave just before using.
