Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Substitute with avocado oil for a different taste.
  • 4 slices Sourdough Bread Use gluten-free bread for a gluten-free version.
  • 1 whole Avocado Prepare fresh right before cooking to prevent browning.
  • 1 cup Smoked Chicken Breast Substitute with rotisserie chicken or grilled tofu for a vegetarian option.
  • 1/4 cup Peppadew Peppers Use roasted red peppers if peppadews are unavailable.
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Chopped Cilantro Omit if desired or substitute with parsley.
  • 1/2 cup Chao Creamy Original Cheese Optional—can be omitted entirely for a lighter version.
For the Chipotle Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Chipotle Adobo Sauce Replace with chipotle powder to adjust spiciness.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, chipotle adobo sauce, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Stir until smooth, adjusting for salt to taste.
  2. Slice the avocado, smoked chicken, and peppadew peppers into manageable pieces.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brush olive oil on the outer side of each slice of sourdough bread. Layer the sandwich components starting with a slice of cheese, followed by avocado, chicken, peppadew peppers, and chipotle sauce.
  4. Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Once both sides are toasted and cheese has melted, remove from skillet. Slice in half and serve immediately.
