ReplyDeleteChicken and avocado, that makes my heart sing! These sound pretty easy to put together as well. Thanks for passing it on :D
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to see you here today. I have been standing in line to have this sandwich. It looks delicious with those chiles, spices and jack cheese...yummy! Thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday and please come back!
Oh, wow! Our household would love this! I would never think to top anything with a chile like that. We love incorporating poblanos into meals, but I usually do it in casserole form or stuff them. This is so much easier! Thanks for sharing with Friday Firsts!
ReplyDeleteThis is some of my favorite things all together here on this chicken breast! I love the southwest spices and the avocado. I will have to try it! Thanks for linking up!
