Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 slices cooked bacon
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 2 slices pepper jack or cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup pickled jalapeños
- 2 brioche buns, toasted
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from canned chipotles in adobo)
- 1/2 teaspoon lime juice
Instructions
1. Start by pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Rub both sides of the chicken with the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the seasoned chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. During the last minute of grilling, place a slice of cheese on each chicken breast, close the grill lid, and let the cheese melt.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, adobo sauce from the canned chipotles, and lime juice. Toast the brioche buns until golden brown. Spread the chipotle mayo on both halves of the buns. Layer the bottom bun with the grilled chicken (complete with the melted cheese), followed by the avocado slices, cooked bacon, and pickled jalapeños. Close the sandwich with the top bun and enjoy this flavor explosion!
Notes
The Spicy Grilled Chicken Avocado Sandwich is best served fresh. Consider pairing it with a side of crispy fries, a fresh salad, or a refreshing lemonade or craft beer for a complete and satisfying meal.
