Carl's Jr. Santa Fe Chicken Recipe
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 x boneless skinless chicken breast halves
- 1 c. teriyaki marinade (Lawry's is best)
- 1/4 c. mayonnaise
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 tsp curry pwdr
- 1 pch salt
- 4 whl -wheat hamburger buns
- 4 x lettuce leaves
- 1 can mild green chili peppers - (4 ounce) liquid removed
- 4 slc American cheese
Directions
- Marinate the chicken in the teriayki marinade in a shallow bowl for 30 min.
- Preheat a clean barbecue to medium grilling heat. Prepare the sauce in a small bowl by mixing the mayonnaise with the paprika, cayenne pepper, curry pwdr, and salt.
- Grill the chicken for 5 to 8 min per side, or possibly till done.
- Brown the faces of each bun in a warm frying pan. Spread a Tbsp. of sauce on the faces of each bun, top and bottom. On each bottom bun place a lettuce leaf, then a green chili pepper. You want the pepper to spread over most of the lettuce. To do this, slice the pepper down the middle and spread it open so which it covers more territory. When sliced open like this, some peppers are big sufficient for 2 sandwiches. Some are much smaller and sufficient for only one sandwich.
- Place one chicken breast half on each of the sandwiches, on top of the chili pepper. Place a slice of American cheese on the chicken. Top it all off with the top bun.
- This recipe yields 4 sandwiches.
