Method

Preparing the Chipotle Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinating the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, garlic powder, cumin, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Coating the Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cooking the Chicken

    After marinating, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Assembling and Cooking the Melt

  1. 4

    Preparing the Bread

    In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Place two slices of sourdough bread in the skillet.

  2. 5

    Layering the Ingredients

    On the bread in the skillet, layer half of the cheddar cheese, followed by the sliced chipotle chicken, the Monterey Jack cheese, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro.

  3. 6

    Grilling the Melt

    Top with the remaining slices of sourdough bread. Spread the remaining butter on the top slices of the bread. Grill for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the cheese has melted.

  4. 7

    Serving

    Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or salsa.
