Amazing Southwest Cilantro Lime Mango Grilled Chicken Sandwiches

“This is a recipe I came up with while trying to figure out what to do with stuff I had on hand. It was so good my husband asked me to publish it and share it with the world. Southwestern food is my specialty. It is especially good with the Fabulous French Loaves recipe on this site.”

These were delicious and flavorful. Only downside was that they take forever to make.

I very much liked the flavors in this recipe. Assembly was a bit difficult, but that's not the recipes' fault - perhaps a press would be good for this. I think this would be equally good in a tortilla, over rice, or on a bed of mixed lettuces.

I made a few modifications and loved the recipe. To start i left the bread and the mayo off. I marinaded the chicken breast and served it with the mango and salsa. I added mango to the salsa and swapped the chipotle for regular chile. I served the chicken with a thick slice of mango and the salsa piled on top. I grilled zuccini, red pepper, onion, and cherry tomatoes and crumbled some loose feta on top. It made for the most fantastic summer meal and it took less time then prepping the sandwiches. With all of the fresh veg it tasted great and is a healthier alternative to the cheese, bread, and mayo.

It took us forever, it seemed, to prepare everything for this meal! But, oh my! Was it alllll worth it!! It was incredible!! A few things we'll do differently next time: Either cut the French (long skinny) loaf into subs or try to find a thicker loaf. And the biggest change: we'll give ourselves much more time to prepare it in! But again, so worth it :) - - Also, the video posted was helpful! Worth watching!

I made this recipe for my 5 person family and it was a major hit! Even my 10 year old cousin loved it. Though this dish takes a lot of time and energy, it is worth it in the end. All of the flavors work wondrously together! I would have expected to find this on a restaurant menu. I had to slightly tweak the recipe, however, because we could not get a hold of any French bread. We made these into wraps using tortillas. Also, we do not have a working grill so we sauteed the vegetables and chicken on the stove. Even with this, it was delicious! I'm sure it is even better with the grill and bread!

I didn't think the flavors went together at all, and with the french bread the sandwich was too big to grill without it falling apart, let alone actually eat. will not be making again.

This may be the best sandwich ever! It was a team effort prepping everything but once that's done it all comes together quickly.

Made this delicious dish and loved it! Amazing! I left out the jalapenos so my 4 yr old could enjoy it too. He ate his whole sandwich! Definitely on the favorite list!!

Very yummy. Four stars as it takes a fair amount of work, yet isn't fancy for company. I served to good friends and they liked it and didn't mind the messiness. O itted cheese as I didn't have it. Diced mango instead of slices and grilled bread, but not entire sandwich. Had all items on table, allowing guests to make own sandwich and choose how much of each ingredient to include or to eat separately. Next time I might sub a freshly made salsa or brand like Salsa Lisa from the store as the salsa in this recipe is fairly standard and add in the chipotle to get smokiness with less work. I might make this as a chicken salad, dicing up the chicken and grilled veg, to make it easier to eat.
