Spicy Chicken Sandwiches with Cilantro-Lime Mayo

Spicy Chicken Sandwiches with Cilantro-Lime Mayo

From Cooking Light

Serves 4

Mayo:
1/4 C reduced-fat mayo
2 T chopped fresh cilantro
1 t fresh lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced

Chicken:
1/4 C egg substitute (or 1 large egg)
3 T hot sauce (such as Tabasco)
1 t dried oregano
1/2 t salt
2 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
4 1/2 ounces baked tortilla chips (about 6 cups)
2 T olive oil

Remaining Ingredients:
4 Kaiser rolls, split
12 red onion slices
4 lettuce leaves

To prepare mayo, combine the first 4 ingredients

To prepare chicken, combine egg substitute, hot sauce, oregano, and salt in a large zip-top plastic bag. Cut chicken breast halves in half horizontally to form 4 cutlets. Add chicken to bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 2 hours or up to 8 hours, turning bag occasionally.

Place tortilla chips in a food processor; process 1 minute or until ground. Place ground chips in a shallow dish.

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.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil to pan, swirling to coat. Add chicken 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 top halves of rolls.

**Notes from Em**
We barely had enough of the mayo to do 3 sandwiches, so I would definitely at least double it next time. There was also a comment on the original website saying that Swiss Cheese was a good addition to this tasty sandwich.

I used the left over chicken to make a mock Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Just stick it on a hamburger bun with mustard, mayo, lettuce, tomato, and pickle.

10/24 I made this again today and didn't do enough of the corn chips, so I used some Panko. I think that's what I'll use from now on. It was a lot easier, and it stuck to the chicken better.
