Meanwhile, drain pickles. Pat dry with paper towels.Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.While the pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Add chicken and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, remaining Southwest Spice Blend, then cornstarch. Flip to coat.

Meanwhile, halve buns, then spread 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) softened butter on cut sides.Add buns, cut-side up, on an unlined baking sheet.Toast in the top of the oven until golden-brown, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on them so they don't burn!)

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The smoky chipotle sauce and seasoned chicken are the standout highlights, with crunchy dill pickles adding a welcome contrast. Some reviewers found the chipotle sauce quite spicy or concentrated, so mixing it with mayo can help balance the heat.
  • Ease of prep: Most found this straightforward to pull together, though actual cook time often runs longer than the estimated 25 minutes.
  • Suggestions: Mix the chipotle sauce with mayo to mellow the intensity, and consider coating the chicken fully in the sauce rather than drizzling for deeper flavour. Adding cheese, sliced tomato, or romaine lettuce in place of spring mix can boost texture and round out the sandwich.
  • Leftovers: The cornstarch coating helps the chicken crisp up nicely, but the potato coins tend to soften and lose their texture once cooled.
  • Portions: Most found the portions generous, though some noted a single sandwich per person can feel light for bigger appetites.
