Categories     Lunch

Time 10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

⅓ cup mayonnaise
1½ Tbsp. Hidden Valley® Original Ranch Salad® Dressing & Seasoning Mix
3 cups cooked chicken, chopped
8 slices sourdough bread
4 slices pepper jack cheese
1 avocado
8 leaves iceberg lettuce
1 cup Cool Ranch Doritos®

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, add the mayonnaise, ranch dressing powder and lemon juice and stir together until combined. Add the chicken and stir to coat with the ranch mixture.
  • Preheat the broiler to high. Place the bread slices on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until golden-brown, 3 to 4 minutes (watch the bread closely, as broiler intensities vary). Remove 4 slices from the baking sheet and set aside. Turn the remaining 4 slices of bread over so that the crisp, golden side faces down. Top each bread slice with 1 piece of cheese and return to under the broiler until the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes (watch the cheese closely, as broiler intensities vary). Remove the baking sheet from the oven.
  • Divide the mashed avocado over the untoasted side of the 4 non-cheesy bread slices. Top each of the bread slices with the chicken salad and 2 lettuce leaves placed cupped side up. Add ¼ cup Cool Ranch Doritos® to each of the 4 uppermost lettuce cups. Top each bread slice with a cheesy bread slice, slice on a bias, and serve with more Cool Ranch Doritos® on the side.

RANCH CHICKEN SANDWICHES



Ranch Chicken Sandwiches image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 whole boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup Dijon mustard (or country/grainy mustard)
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 1 lemon
Crushed red pepper, for sprinkling, optional
1 pound thick-cut bacon, sliced in half
2 cups grated sharp Cheddar
8 soft whole grain buns

Steps:

  • With a very sharp knife, cut the chicken breasts in half down the middle. This will result in 8 chicken breast pieces that are thinner and uniform in size.
  • Next, make the marinade. In a large bowl mix together the honey, mustard, paprika, salt, pepper to taste, lemon juice and crushed red pepper flakes if using. Stir to combine.
  • Add the chicken to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the fridge, 2 to 4 hours.
  • While the chicken marinates, fry up the bacon until chewy. When finished cooking, reserve 1/4 cup of the bacon grease and pour off the rest of the grease (but do not clean the skillet).
  • When you are ready to cook the chicken, remove it from the marinade and cook it in the skillet over medium-high heat, 3 to 4 minutes each side. Brush a little reserved bacon grease on the chicken as you cook it. (Or you can grill the chicken breasts on an indoor or outdoor grill.)
  • When a couple of minutes grilling time are left, lay 2 pieces of bacon onto each chicken breast. Top with some Cheddar and allow it to melt on the grill (if you need to remove the chicken you can finish melting the cheese under the broiler).
  • Halve the rolls and immediately load with the bacon-and-cheese covered chicken.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk
2 to 3 dashes hot sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Four 5-to-6-ounce chicken cutlets
1 small clove garlic
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or scallions
4 slices pepper Jack cheese
4 kaiser or onion rolls, split and toasted
Lettuce leaves and tomato slices, for topping
Potato chips, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high. Combine 1/4 cup buttermilk, the hot sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a large bowl. Add the chicken and turn to coat; let stand 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the ranch sauce: Mince the garlic with 1/4 teaspoon salt on a cutting board; mash with the flat side of a chef's knife to make a paste. Combine the garlic paste, mayonnaise, vinegar, the remaining 2 tablespoons buttermilk and the chives in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer the chicken to the grill, letting the excess marinade drip off. Grill until marked on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes, then flip the chicken, top each piece with a slice of cheese and continue grilling until just cooked through, 2 to 4 more minutes.
  • Spread each roll with some of the ranch sauce and fill with the chicken, lettuce and tomato. Serve with potato chips.
