Sandwiches are a perfect food for a summer meal. This Tequila Lime Grilled Chicken Club will seriously rock your world. Who can resist tender chicken, crispy bacon, and the chipotle mayo is to die for!
This Tequila Lime Grilled Chicken Club is perfect when you're looking for something easy to cook on a hot summer day. My slow cooker bbq chicken sandwich is another great recipe when you don't want to heat up the kitchen.
By pounding the chicken breasts slightly, the meat cooks evenly and stays moist on the grill. I love the flavor of chicken marinated in tequila and lime, it just adds the best flavor. No need to worry about the alcohol, it will all burn off on the grill. This chicken sandwich is super hearty and so easy to put together. This was a huge hit with my family and has definitely become a new family favorite.
Chipotle mayo is one of my favorite condiments. So easy to make at home and goes perfect on sandwiches, burgers, or even tacos.
