Spicy BBQ Chicken Sandwich with Sriracha Mayo
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce
- 4 hamburger buns
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 tomato, sliced
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce to make the spicy sriracha mayo. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
- While the chicken is cooking, toast the hamburger buns in a toaster or on a grill until lightly golden.
- Once the chicken is cooked, brush each breast with 1/4 cup of BBQ sauce, coating both sides. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to caramelize the sauce.
- To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous amount of spicy sriracha mayo on the bottom half of each bun. Place a BBQ chicken breast on top, followed by a handful of shredded lettuce and a couple of tomato slices. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Serve the spicy BBQ chicken sandwiches immediately and enjoy!
