Chopped Chipotle Chicken Sandwich

Chopped Chipotle Chicken Sandwich

White meat, dark meat, or a combination of both. This sandwich works well with any and all chicken. Honestly, if you don’t have time, you can just grab a rotissertie chicken on the way home and pull the meat; of course if you have time, char-grilling the meat does add great flavor to this recipe. Try topping the sandwich with a little cole slaw for a real southern BBQ treat.

Ingredients:
3 Pounds raw boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breast or a combination of both
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
½ Onion sliced thin
1 Bottle Ketchipotle
8 Hamburger buns

Directions:
Grill chicken on the bbq until it is fully cooked.
Let chicken cool for a few minutes.
While chicken is cooking and cooling make the sauce:

Add onion and oil to a large pan on the stove over medium-high heat.
Cook and stir onions until they become golden brown and caramelized.
Add ketchipotle to the pan and bring to a simmer.
Chop the chicken into small pieces and add to the pan.
Simmer and stir everything together for a few minutes.
Place a large scoop of chopped chicken onto a bun and serve.
Can also add a slice of cheese to the sandwich.
