How To Make grilled chicken sandwiches with cilantro lime mayo

Step 1

For Mayo: In a small bowl combine mayo, cilantro, garlic, and 1/2 of the lime juice (more or less to taste), salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the rest of the meal.

Step 2

For Chicken: Butterfly chicken breast by slicing through the middle horizontally to cut almost in half. Open out flat. Brush lightly with oil, sprinkle with a pinch of taco seasoning on each side. Salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3

For Outdoor Grilling: Grill over medium-hot coals for about 3 minutes per side or until chicken is opaque with no trace of pink. For Indoor Grilling: Preheat broiler. Broil 3 minutes per side or until opaque or preheat a ridged grill pan to medium heat and cook 3 minutes per side until opaque.
Step 4

Just before the chicken is done squirt with remaining lime juice.
Step 5

Lightly toast bread on the grill for about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Step 6

Assemble your sandwiches topped with avocado, lettuce, onion, tomato, and, of course, the cilantro lime mayo. Enjoy!
