SOUTHWEST CHICKEN POBLANO BURGER/SANDWICH
This is similar to the Sante Fe Chicken Sandwich from Carl's Jr, and it's one of the best tasting chicken sandwiches that I have ever made! This recipe has just a little bit of kick as written, but if you really like things hot then you can double the cayenne pepper for a nice spicy sandwich!

Steps:
- 1. Cut each large chicken breast in half, and pound each half until it is about 1/2 thick throughout the fillet.
- 2. Lay the chicken breasts in a shallow pan and pour enough marinade to cover them about 1/2 way. Turn over and generously coat both sides of each breast with the marinade, and then cover and let set in the fridge for at least an hour.
- 3. To make the mayo sauce, mix the light Mayo/Miracle Whip with the cayenne pepper, paprika, and curry power. Mix well, and set aside out of fridge to let the flavors blend.
- 4. After chicken has marinated for at least an hour, pre-heat the grill on medium heat and place all 4 chicken breasts on the grill.
- 5. Cook each side for 5-7 minutes, applying extra marinade to each side with a brush if desired.
- 6. While chicken is cooking, prepare each bun with 1/2 to 1 Tbsp of the Mayo spread on each side of the bun. Place a leaf of lettuce on the top part of each bun. Take 4 whole peppers and slice them open so they lie flat, and set them aside.
- 6. Once the chicken is almost done (150-160*F internal temp, or 5-6 minutes on each side), place a slice of Colby Jack cheese on each breast and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until cheese starts to melt.
- 7. Place the finished chicken breasts on the lower half of the bun and top each one with a pepper, then close up the sandwich and enjoy!
