Instructions

Creating a delicious Chicken Torta Sandwich is straightforward! Just follow these simple steps:

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  1. Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill or skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 7-10 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and golden brown. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  1. Prepare the Rolls: While the chicken cooks, cut the bolillo rolls in half and lightly toast them on the grill or in a toaster.
  1. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and chipotle sauce until well combined. Adjust the spiciness level to your preference.
  1. Assemble the Sandwich: Once the chicken is cooked, slice it into strips. Spread the chipotle mayo on both sides of the toasted bolillo rolls.
  1. Add the Chicken: Place a generous amount of grilled chicken on the bottom half of each roll.
  1. Top It Off: Add slices of avocado, a handful of shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and pickled jalapeños if desired.
  1. Garnish and Close: Sprinkle fresh cilantro on top before placing the roll’s top half over the fillings.
  1. Serve: Enjoy your delicious Chicken Torta Sandwich immediately, or wrap it up for lunch later.
