Ingredients
- 2 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 2 teaspoons Spicy Seasoning Blend
- Salt/Pepper
- 2 Slices Pepperjack Cheese
- 2 Whole Green Chiles
- 1/4 Cup Mayonnaise
- Hot Sauce - to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder
- 1 Tomato - sliced
- Leaf Lettuce
- 2 Soft Buns
Instructions
- Pound chicken breasts to an even thickness of no more than 1 inch thick. Season with spice blend, salt and pepper.
- Heat nonstick fry pan over medium/high heat. Add a drizzle of oil.
- Place chicken breasts into pan and fry 4-5 minutes each side (to 165ºF internal temp). Just before the chicken breasts are cooked through, add sliced pepperjack cheese and chiles on top.
- Mix mayo, hot sauce and chili powder. Slather mayo onto top and bottom buns.
- Place chicken breasts onto bottom buns. Top with tomatoes, lettuce and top bun. Serve.
Notes
For a warmed bun: I use a mesh splatter screen when cooking the chicken breast. The last minute I place the buns on top of the screen to warm/steam them. You can also warm the buns in a 250ºF oven for 2-3 minutes if preferred.
