These reduced-fat chicken sandwiches feature chicken cutlets encrusted with tortilla chip crumbs, which yield a satisfying crunch. You can also use spicy chips for more heat. Ingredients:
1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro |
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/4 cup egg substitute |
3 tablespoons hot sauce (such as tabasco) |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves |
4 1/2 ounces baked tortilla chips (about 6 cups) |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
remaining ingredients |
4 (2-ounce) kaiser rolls, split |
12 (1/8-inch-thick) red onion slices |
4 lettuce leaves |
Directions:
1. To prepare mayo, combine the first 4 ingredients.
2. To prepare chicken, combine egg substitute, hot sauce, oregano, and salt in a large zip-top plastic bag. Cut chicken breast halves in half horizontally to form 4 cutlets. Add chicken to bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 2 hours or up to 8 hours, turning bag occasionally.
3. Place tortilla chips in a food processor; process 1 minute or until ground. Place ground chips in a shallow dish.
4. Working with one cutlet at a time, remove chicken from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Coat chicken completely in chips. Set aside. Repeat procedure with remaining chicken and chips.
5. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil to pan, swirling to coat. Add chicken to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until browned and done. Spread mayo evenly over cut sides of rolls. Layer bottom half of each roll with 3 onion slices, 1 lettuce leaf, and 1 chicken cutlet; top with top halves of rolls.
