This sandwich recipe has way more 'hot' than we like, so I cut back on the hot sauce, the chili sauce AND the jalapeno, possibly changing the entire intent of the recipe, BUT we still had a nice lunch nevertheless! I used shredded chicken breast that I had on hand in the freezer, & that worked very well! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar tag]
