Ingredients
Jackfruit Filling
Other Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Cabbage chopped
- 1 Tbsp Peanut Butter
- 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 2 slices Wheat Bread or gluten-free bread, whole
Instructions
- Prepare the jackfruit by removing the seeds and core. Boil the jackfruit until tender, then drain and rinse. Shred the jackfruit using two forks.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until softened and translucent. This builds a flavor base for the jackfruit filling.
- Add the shredded jackfruit to the skillet. Pour in the barbecue sauce, ensuring the jackfruit is evenly coated. Add a splash of water, cover, and cook briefly to allow the flavors to meld.
- Season the jackfruit mixture with paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Spread peanut butter on each slice of bread. This adds a creamy, nutty element that complements the jackfruit "tuna" salad.
- Spoon the jackfruit mixture onto one slice of bread. Top with chopped cabbage and the other slice of bread to create the sandwich.
- Lightly grill the sandwich on both sides until golden brown and the peanut butter is slightly melted. This adds a satisfying crunch and warmth to the sandwich.
