Our Pairing Suggestion

A bright, fruity, low-alcohol white with no oak will complement the peppery arugula and the smoky-sweet chipotle in the chicken sandwiches. A refreshing Vinho Verde from Portugal is a good match.

Ingredients

  1. 3 tablespoons crème fraîche or sour cream
  2. 1 canned chipotle chile in adobo, seeded and minced
  3. 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  4. 2 small zucchini, coarsely shredded

  10. 1 roast chicken (about 4 pounds), meat and skin shredded
  1. In a small bowl, combine the crème fraîche with the chipotle in adobo and 1 1/2 tablespoons of the lime juice. Add the shredded zucchini and a pinch of salt. Let the zucchini slaw stand for 5 minutes.
