Southwest Chicken Sandwich with Chipotle Aioli



















This is a super easy chicken sandwich you can serve this hot or as a cold sandwich. We make a sandwich everyday at work for the residents this is the best one yet.

Ingredients-

2 Red Peppers
1 Red Onion cut into strips
Sliced Pepper Jack Cheese
4 Chicken Breast boneless, skinless
1 Can Chipotle Peppers(At the end of the growing season, jalapeƱos naturally ripen and turn bright red)
2 Cups Mayo
1 Head of Lettuce
4 Buns (whatever kind you like. In the picture is fresh baked hoagie buns)

Directions-

1. Roast red peppers on grill until all nice and charred on all sides. Put peppers into Tupperware or a bowl and cover with plastic wrap for 20 minutes. Peel skin off of peppers, core and cut into strips.
2.  This step is all about you, how spicy do you like your food(when I make this for my wife it is just mayo, she can not do spicy food. She can't eat that fast food taco place's mild sauce). You get about 6-7 peppers out of each can of chipotle peppers, empty can into a bowl and leave 2-3 peppers in bowl. Take the peppers you left in the bowl out and dice them and return them to bowl, add mayo and whisk.
3. Grill the chick until internal temp is 165 degrees, while chicken is cooking put chapotle aioli on bun add cheese, peppers, onion and lettuce. Once chicken is cooked add to sandwich… enjoy!
