Chicken Sandwiches with Cilantro Lime Mayo


Chicken Sandwiches with cilantro-lime mayo


mayo:
1/4 c mayo
2 tbspn chopped cilantro
1 tsp fresh lime juice
1 garlice clove, minced

chicken:
1/4 cup egg substitute (this is from cooking light and they always suggest this stuff and i never use it. i just use the amt of eggs i think equals their amt of substitute. in this case i think it was 2.
3 tbspn hot sauce (such as tabasco)
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp salt
2 skinless boneless chicken breast halves
4 1/4 oz tortilla chips (about 6 cups)
2 tbspn olive oil

remaining ingredients:
4 kaiser rolls
12 red onion slices
lettuce leaves


1. to prepare mayo: combine the first 4 ingredients.

2. to prepare chicken: combine egg substitue, hot sauce, oreganoe and salt in a large zip top plastic bag. cut chicken breast halves in half horizontally to form 4 cutlets. add chicken to bag and seal. marinate in fridge for 2 hours or up to 8, turning occasionally.

3. place tortilla chips in food processor (yay!) process 1 minute until ground. place ground chips in shallow dish.

4. working with one cutlet at a time, remove chicken from marinade allowing excess to drip off. coat chicken completely in chips. set aside. repeat procedure with remaining chicken and chips.

5. heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat. add olive oil to pan swirling to coat. add chickne to pan, cook 3 minutes on each side or until browned and done. spread mayo evenly over cut sides of rolls. layer bottom half of each roll with 3 onion slices, 1 lettuce leaf and 1 chicken cutlet, top with halves of rolls.


i made some sauteed potato slices to go with this. simply thinly slice a potato, and add them to a pan with some hot olive oil, sprinkle with s/p. let them get good and browned on one side, then flip the whole thing over and let that side get browned. you can layer them with onions if you like, as in layer of potatoes down, s/p, layer of onions, layer of potatoes, s/p, layer of onions. and them flip them that way. sever with ketchup.
