"A clever, deconstructed BLT: Bread coats chicken in the form of breadcrumbs, bacon is cooked with lettuce and tomato for a simple side, and a dollop of seasoned mayonnaise acts as a sauce. Panko is available in the Asian foods section of some supermarkets and at Asian markets. from Bon Appetit, June 2008"
