Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Chipotle Sauce by mixing chipotle adobo sauce, mayonnaise (or yogurt), lemon juice, minced garlic, and salt until creamy.
  2. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes and brush the outer sides of each slice of sourdough bread with olive oil.
  3. Assemble the sandwich by placing one slice of bread in the skillet, layer with cheese, smoked chicken, avocado, peppadew peppers, cilantro, and top with the second slice.
  4. Grill the sandwich for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown, then flip and grill for another 2-3 minutes.
  5. Serve immediately after resting for a minute, slicing in half to reveal the filling.
