Chicken sandwiches are one of the all-time cocktail party classics. And in Melbourne, the one sandwich to rule them all is the one made by caterer Peter Rowland.
It’s been seen at some of Melbourne’s swankiest luncheons, parties and events since 1962 – an astonishing 50 tonnes have left the Peter Rowland kitchen over the past 64 years.
Matthew Haigh, who spent 11 years as Peter Rowland Group’s executive chef, says the chicken sandwich remains timeless.
“While some food trends have come and gone, the chicken sandwich has stood the test of time and shows no signs of losing its popularity.”
The Peter Rowland version uses soft, crustless white bread lightly spread with butter and filled with a combination of poached chicken and house-made mayonnaise flecked with chopped chives and parsley.
The exact recipe has remained a closely guarded secret. Until now.
