Chicken Tortas (Mexican sandwiches) image

This is an easy and delicious Mexican sandwich that is served all over here in San Diego. You start with the famous soft oblong Mexican sandwich bread roll called "Bolillos" but any soft sandwich roll will do. It's sort of a burrito on a bun. You can also make them with seasoned ground or shredded beef (leftover taco meat perhaps?). I hope you like them!

These sandwiches are perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. I love that I can make them ahead of time and they still taste great.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also added some black beans and corn to the sandwiches for extra flavor and texture.

I made a few modifications to the recipe, but overall it turned out great! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and added some diced avocado to the sandwiches.

Not a fan of this recipe. The chicken was dry and the chipotle mayonnaise was too overpowering.

This sandwich was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it.

I've tried many chicken torta recipes, but this one is by far the best. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and the chipotle mayonnaise is out of this world.

Not bad, but not amazing. I found the chicken to be a bit dry.
