Ingredients
- 2 jalapenos, cut into thin rounds
- 3 tablespoons cilantro leaves
- 1/4 cup tequila
- 1 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 2 limes (juice of 2 limes, about 1/4 cup)
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 4 chicken breasts (boneless, skinless chicken breasts)
- 2 roasted red bell peppers, cut into thin strips (I use bottled)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
- Canola oil (as needed)
- Kaiser rolls (4 rolls)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 green cabbage head, very thinly sliced
- 4 ounces provolone cheese (thinly sliced)
How to Make
-
Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine the jalapenos, cilantro, tequila, minced garlic, chili flakes, cumin, oregano, lime juice and 1 tsp of salt.
-
Step 2: Place the chicken and bell peppers in a resealable 1-gallon plastic bag and pour in the marinade.
-
Step 3: Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours.
-
Step 4: In a small mixing bowl, combine the flour, the remaining 1 tsp salt and the granulated garlic.
-
Step 5: Preheat a grill to high.
-
Step 6: In a medium heavy-bottomed pot, heat the canola oil to 350 degrees F.
-
Step 7: Remove the chicken from the marinade. (Leave the roasted red peppers in the marinade.) Grill the chicken until cooked through, turning several times to prevent burning, about 12 minutes in all. Cover the cooked chicken and let sit for 5 minutes.
-
Step 8: Thinly slice the chicken across the grain.
-
Step 9: Remove the roasted peppers from the marinade, dredge them in the flour mixture, and fry in the oil until crispy, 2 to 3 minutes, working in batches as needed. Drain on paper towels.
-
Step 10: Split and lightly toast the rolls.
-
Step 11: Spread mayonnaise on the bottom halves.
-
Step 12: Stack each roll evenly with the cabbage, onion, chicken breast, fried peppers and cheese.
