Note...not for the faint of tastebuds. This sandwich packs a punch...if you like spice...then you will love it! Feel free to add cheese. I prefer this sandwich with pepper jack, but find that sometimes it takes away from the all of the flavors. Ingredients:
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
2 kaiser rolls |
3 chipotle chiles in adobo |
4 tablespoons mayonnaise |
2 jalapenos, sliced |
2 tablespoons tempura batter |
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1/4 teaspoon paprika |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/8 teaspoon onion powder |
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder |
4 slices tomatoes |
4 leaves lettuce |
4 slices onions |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
4 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying) |
Directions:
1. Combine cayenne, paprika, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Sprinkle over chicken breasts making sure to rub spice mixture in to the chicken. Let sit for 5-10 minute.
2. Slice the 3 chilies in adobo sauce and add to the mayonnaise in a small bowl and stir to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use.
3. Begin to heat olive oil in large skillet. Once olive oil is hot add chicken and saute from 5-7 min each side.
4. While the chicken is cooking, mix together the tempura batter then add the sliced jalapenos and set aside. Begin to heat vegetable oil in a small skillet, once oil reaches approximately 300 degrees* add the tempura battered jalapenos and fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oil and rest of a paper towel. *Note: if you don't have a thermometer for the oil, simply let the oil heat over medium heat for about 5 minutes that should bring you to the perfect temperature.
5. Once the chicken has completed its cooking process. It is now time to assemble the sandwiches. Slice the kaiser roll in half and place 1/2 of the mayonnaise mixture on each of the respectable rolls. Place chicken on roll and top with tempura jalapenos, lettuce, tomato, and onions.
