Chef Josh Capon serves up 2 US Open recipes to recreate at home

The U.S. Open marks the final Grand Slam of the 2024 tennis season, but before defending champions Coco Gauff and Novak Djokovic descend on the iconic grounds of USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center alongside hungry top competitors and even hungrier fans , one of the events mainstay culinary contributors, chef Josh Capon, is giving patrons an early taste of some delicious new dishes.

As Capon prepares to reprise his role serving patrons at the New York City tournament later this month, he joined "Good Morning America" on Tuesday with two bites inspired by what's hitting menus this season: chicken salad BLT sandwiches and chilled shrimp salad rolls.

For any fans who will be catching the action couch-side rather than court side this year, check out Capon's full recipes to recreate at home below.

Capon, owner of Little Maven from his hospitality venture VCR Group, will also add these dishes to the menu at the signature US Open culinary event, Flavors of the Open on August 22.

Chef Capon's tips:

The rotisserie chicken helps save time for the chicken salad. Remove all the skin, then pull the meat off the bones.

The chicken salad is also served great in lettuce cups with warm crumbled bacon as an appetizer or if you are trying to avoid the carbs.

Make sure your ciabatta rolls are nice and toasted with olive oil or butter, and that your bacon is warm and crispy.

Always season your sliced tomatoes with kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper.
