CHICKEN TORTAS (MEXICAN SANDWICHES) RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Chicken Tortas (Mexican sandwiches) Recipe - Food.com 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!

Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 bolillos mexican rolls or 4 soft French rolls
2 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 can refried beans
1/2 cup shredded cheese
salsa
sour cream
avocado (or guacamole)
shredded lettuce

Steps:

  • Micro the split rolls a few seconds to make them nice and soft and then pull the doughy centers out of the top and the bottom.
  • Spread the bottom with a layer of hot refried beans then sprinkle with shredded cheese.
  • Put a pile of hot cooked chicken on top of the cheese then top with sour cream, salsa, a couple slices of avocado then shredded lettuce.
  • Top with the other half of the bun and enjoy!
