Chicken Fajita Sandwiches

Steps

1. 1Chipotle Aioli
2. 2Preheat oven to 350°F. In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, crushed garlic, lemon or lime juice, and chipotle chili powder. Add salt and pepper to taste and more chipotle chili powder for more spice if desired. Set aside.
3. 3Fajita Filling
4. 4Sprinkle taco seasoning over chicken thighs until lightly coated on all sides. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Once hot, add chicken thighs and cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat reads 165°F. If at any time the outside of the chicken begins to cook too quickly and burn, turn down the heat slightly.
5. 5While your meat cooks, in another large skillet, heat oil over medium heat and add onion and bell peppers. Sprinkle with taco seasoning and toss to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 8 minutes, until edges are lightly browned and vegetables are tender-crisp. Salt and pepper to taste.
6. 6For softer vegetables, turn heat down to medium once the vegetables are browned so they don’t burn, and continue to cook until vegetables reach your desired level of doneness.
7. 7Assemble Sandwiches
8. 8Slice chicken thighs into strips. Spread aioli over both sides of each roll and layer chicken, fajita vegetables, and cheese on the bottom half of each roll. Place rolls in the oven and bake for 5 to 6 minutes until cheese is melted and rolls are toasty.
9. 9Serve and enjoy!
