Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 pieces Bolillo rolls (or other sandwich rolls)
• 2 pieces Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 1 cup Shredded lettuce
• 1 cup Sliced tomatoes
• 0.5 cup Sliced red onions
• 1 pieces Avocado, sliced

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Butterfly the chicken breasts or pound them to a uniform thickness of 1/2 inch for even cooking.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.

Step 4

Brush the grill pan or skillet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice the chicken into thin strips.

Step 5

While the chicken is resting, prepare the chipotle mayonnaise. In a food processor, blend the chipotle peppers, mayonnaise, and lime juice until smooth. Set aside.

Step 6

Slice the bolillo rolls in half and lightly toast on the grill pan or in a toaster.

Step 7

Spread a generous layer of chipotle mayonnaise on both halves of each roll.

Step 8

Assemble the tortas by layering shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, red onion slices, avocado, and grilled chicken strips on the bottom half of each roll. Top with the other half of the roll.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite chips or a fresh side salad. Enjoy!
