Chipotle BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwiches

Step aside pulled pork sandwiches, because Chipotle BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwiches are in town! Even though the pulled pork sandwich is a classic, these Chipotle BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwiches are a fun and healthy way to twist things up! Chicken breasts are roasted with smoky chipotle and a sweet and zesty bbq sauce, shredded and tossed together with all the juicy goodness left over on the bottom of the pan to make a killer pulled chicken sandwich. The combination of the chipotle and the bbq sauce will tickle your tastebuds perfectly!

What we ended up loving the most about this recipe, besides how scrumptious it is, is how versatile it can be! Serve it up one night as Chipotle BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwiches, and then use the leftovers for tacos or fajitas! Since you have both the flavor profile of the chipotle and the bbq sauce, the pulled chicken can easily be transformed into different meals. How great is that?

Whip them up for a weeknight meal, bbq bash, Sunday dinner, or any time that you just need a simple, delicious, home cooked meal to put on the table.
