Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Rub the chicken breasts with ancho chili seasoning until well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the seasoned chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the chicken is cooked, allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing. On a plate, layer the romaine lettuce, then add sliced chicken, cheddar cheese, pickles, onion, bacon, and tomato.

  4. 4

    Add the Sauces

    Top the assembled ingredients with guacamole and a generous drizzle of chipotle mayo.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your blackened chicken!
