Description
This awesome sandwich uses smoked paprika and ground chipotle to add just the right amount of spice to boneless skinless chicken breasts without overwhelming the delicate flavor of the chicken. Ensure the meat comes out perfectly cooked by checking the temperature with the Yummly Smart Thermometer — or check with an instant-read if you don’t have the Yummly Thermometer. We top our sandwich with a super quick brown sugar bbq sauce and a creamy, crispy, colorful slaw. Use broccoli slaw mix because it doesn’t wilt as quickly as a cabbage slaw and it has a nicer color palette — for even more color, stir in extra shredded carrots and a little shredded red cabbage. The recipe is a Yummly original created by David Bonom.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (8 oz. each)
- 2 tsp. smoked paprika
- 1 tsp. ground cumin
- 4 tsp. chili powder (divided)
- 3/4 tsp. salt (divided)
- 1/4 tsp. ground chipotle chile pepper
- 2 cups broccoli slaw mix (store-bought)
- 3 Tbsp. mayonnaise
- 5 tsp. apple cider vinegar (divided)
- 1 1/2 tsp. granulated sugar
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp. dry mustard
- 4 soft sandwich rolls (oblong-shaped, hoagie or French, sliced in half)
Directions
- Preheat a grill for medium heat (350° to 450°F).
- Set chicken on a work surface with the smooth side up. With the heel of your hand or a meat mallet, lightly pound the thick portion of each chicken breast piece so the whole breast is an even 3/4-inch thick.
- For the rub, combine smoked paprika, cumin, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the chipotle in a small bowl. Rub the mixture over both sides of each piece of chicken. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
