The impetus for this was the fact that my darling bride''s absolutely favorite pub food is a chicken sandwich so hot that it makes her cry. I hate that she likes some other guys cooking better than mine, so this is my answer to the Steelhead Pecos Chicken Sandwich.
First grill* the corn. While doing so, enjoy a Bezonian Boat Drink**.
When the corn is grilled, charred and smoky, move to the top rack but leave over the heat.
While the corn is grilling and between sips of your Boat Drink, place the chicken breasts on a platter or
hotel pan. Drizzle olive oil over the breasts and rub to coat. (Get your mind out of the gutter, we''re talking food here). Sprinkle a generous coating of the Cajun seasoning over the breasts. Now, whatever you thought was generous,
do that much again. Next layer on about the same amount of the New Mexico chili powder. Let breasts sit while you
go finish the corn.
Grill the chicken breasts for approximately 5-6 minutes per side over a medium heat (350ish). The spices should
make a nice crust.
Remove the breasts from the grill and let sit. Place the buns on the grill and toast golden. Remove the corn from
grill.
Assemble the sandwiches; place a breast on a toasted bun, top with a slice of tomato, then the Fire Mayo.
Serve with an ear or two of the smoky grilled corn.
Indulge!
* See BezonianBob''s definition of a grill. I know, it''s a huge argument but I''m willing to take a stand.
** See section on Bezonian Boat drinks, a selection of easy to prepare and VERY easy to drink concoctions that make
life better.
