Grilled Cajun Chicken Sandwich
Ingredients
  • 4
    skinless, boneless medium chicken breast halves (about 12 ounces total)
  • Olive oil or cooking oil
  • 1/2 - 1
    teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 4
    ounces Monterey Jack cheese with peppers
  • 2 - 4
    tablespoons Thousand Island salad dressing
  • bottled hot pepper sauce
  • Roasted or fresh red sweet pepper strips
  • Lettuce leaves
  • 4
    Kaiser or whole wheat buns, split and toasted
Directions

1. Rinse chicken; pat dry. Place each breast, boned side up, between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Working from center to edges, pound lightly with the flat side of a mallet until chicken is just less than 1/2 inch thick.

2. Brush with oil; sprinkle with Cajun seasoning. Grill or broil as directed.

3. Spread buns with Thousand Island salad dressing mixed with a few dashes bottled hot pepper sauce. Top with roasted or fresh red sweet pepper strips, lettuce, and bun tops. Makes 4 servings.

4. To cook by direct grill method: Arrange chicken on a grill rack. Grill, uncovered, directly over medium coals for 12 to 15 minutes or until no pink remains, turning once. Add cheese the last 2 minutes of grilling.

From the Test Kitchen
  • Tip To broil:Arrange the chicken on an unheated broiler pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until no pink remains, turning once. Add cheese the last minute of cooking.
