DIRECTIONS

1.	CHICKEN PATTIES: Place the frozen chicken patties on sheet pan (18" x 26" x 1") that have been sprayed with pan release spray or lined with parchment paper. Bake the patties according to the package directions. Overcooking will cause patties to be dry. Use immediately, or cover the pan until ready for sandwich assembly. If aluminum foil or plastic wrap is used, cut holes in it to allow steam to escape. Place the pan in warmer until ready for sandwich assembly. CCP: Heat to 135 degrees F or higher for at least 15 seconds at the completion of the cooking process. If the manufacturer instructions on the package or case have a higher temperature, follow those recommendations. CCP: Hold and maintain the product at a minimum temperature of 135 degrees F. Check temperature every 30 minutes.
2.	TRIMMINGS: Rinse the tomatoes under cool, running water, then drain them thoroughly. Core and thinly slice the tomatoes (8 slices per tomato). Portion 1/8 cup lettuce, 1 tomato slice, and 2 pickle slices in individual portion containers. Cover and refrigerate until ready for service. CCP: Hold under refrigeration (41 degrees F or lower) until ready for service. Check temperature every 30 minutes. Cover, label and date any leftovers.
3.	SANDWICH ASSEMBLY: Place 24 bottom portions of hamburger buns on a sheet pan, 4 down and 6 across. Place a cooked chicken patty on each bun. Cover with the top portion of each bun. Chicken Patty Sandwiches may also be wrapped in deli paper, waxed paper, foil sheets, plastic wrap or placed in sandwich bags. Place each Chicken Patty Sandwich in steamtable pans (12" x 20" x 21⁄2") lined with pan liners. Prepare the Chicken Patty Sandwiches in batches to maintain quality.
