Instructions

  • Place chicken on a cutting board. Pound lightly or slice horizontally so each piece is thin and even.

  • Fry chicken in batches until deep golden brown and cooked through, about 4 - 5 minutes per side. Drain on a wire rack or paper towels.
  • Toast sourdough bread with butter in a skillet or on a griddle until golden.
  • Place 1 slice American cheese on each hot piece of chicken.
  • Spread chipotle sauce on one side of each toasted bread slice.
