Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
8 thin slices Monterey Jack cheese
1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and sliced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and sliced
¼ cup olive oil
½ lime, juiced
1 tablespoon spicy mesquite-flavored seasoning
1 pinch sea salt
1 cup chipotle barbeque sauce
4 Kaiser rolls, split

Steps:

Slice a small pocket into each chicken breast with a sharp knife. Layer cheese slices, avocado slices, and sliced jalapeno inside the chicken pockets. Pinch chicken breasts closed and secure with toothpicks or skewers; place chicken into a casserole dish.
Whisk olive oil, lime juice, mesquite seasoning, and salt together in a bowl; drizzle half of the mixture over chicken breasts. Turn chicken breasts over and drizzle with remaining olive oil mixture; cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
Place chicken breasts on preheated grill and cook for 7 minutes; turn chicken over and brush with BBQ sauce on the cooked side. Continue grilling for about 5 minutes; turn chicken over and apply BBQ sauce to the second cooked side. Cook chicken until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 2 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Serve each chicken breast on a Kaiser roll.

Tips:

Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients and tools are prepped and ready to go.

Choose the Right Chicken Breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.

Use a Good Marinade: Marinating the chicken breasts in a flavorful marinade for at least 30 minutes will help tenderize them and infuse them with flavor.

Cook the Chicken to the Correct Internal Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken breasts are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Let the Chicken Rest: After cooking, let the chicken breasts rest for a few minutes before slicing or serving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the chicken more tender.

Serve with Your Favorite Sides: Spicy chicken breasts can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
