Cheesy Chicken & Guacamole Tortas Elevated Dinners, Impressively Easy

Looking for a dynamic dinner? Meet the torta! Our take on this classic Mexican sandwich starts with crusty ciabatta bread slathered with savory spiced mashed beans layered with cheesy fajita-spiced chicken, juicy tomato, and a layer of creamy guac. With a tangy pico de gallo-studded spring mix salad and crunchy chips, this 15-minute (!) super-stuffed sammie + salad is torta-lly dinner worthy!

Instructions

4 steps
  1. 1

    Pat chicken* dry and season all over with Fajita Spice Blend, salt, and pepper.

    Drizzle oil in a hot pan. Cook chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. TIP: While chicken cooks, move on to Step 2.

    Sprinkle cheese over chicken; cover until cheese melts, 30-60 seconds. Remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Wash and dry produce.

    Thinly slice tomato into rounds. Season with salt and pepper.

    Place refried beans in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap; microwave 2-3 minutes. Uncover and stir.

    Halve and toast ciabattas. TIP: If you have downtime, make the salad in the next step.

  3. 3

    In a bowl, toss mixed greens, pico de gallo (draining first), and vinaigrette to combine.

  4. 4

    Spread refried beans on cut sides of ciabattas (save any remaining refried beans for another use). Top with cheesy chicken, tomato, and guacamole; season with salt and pepper. Close chicken tortas.

    Divide chicken tortas between plates; serve with salad and tortilla chips on the side.

    Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
