Chicken Carbon Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Cook in a skillet over medium heat for 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let cool before shredding.

  2. 2

    Make the Cilantro Garlic Mayo

    In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Avocado

    Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit and slice the flesh into thin slices.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the bread slices if desired. Spread a generous amount of cilantro garlic mayo on each slice. Layer the shredded chicken, Chihuahua cheese, pickled slaw, and avocado on two slices of bread. Top with the remaining slices.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
