Preparation Steps

1
Trim, Flatten & Marinate Chicken

Trim 16 boneless, skinless chicken cutlets (6 oz. each) removing excess fat and sinew, then flatten slightly with a meat mallet to an even thickness. Season cutlets thoroughly on all sides with 2–3 Tbsp. RC Ranchero Flavor Concentrate. Cover and refrigerate under marination for at least 30 minutes.

2
Blend Savory Avocado Ranch Spread

In a stainless steel mixing bowl, combine 1 quart prepared RC Creamy Buttermilk and Herb Dressing Mix, 1 Tbsp. RC No Added MSG Oven Roasted Chicken Base, and 1 pureed ripe avocado. Whisk continuously until completely smooth and homogenous. Cover and refrigerate sandwich spread until ready for assembly.

3
Char-Grill Marinated Chicken Cutlets

Preheat a charbroiler or gas grill to medium-high heat. Grill the Ranchero-marinated chicken breasts for 5 to 6 minutes per side, turning once, until distinct grill marks form and internal temperature reaches a minimum of 165°F on an instant-read thermometer.

4
Assemble Ciabatta Sandwiches & Serve

Lightly toast 16 ciabatta roll halves. Portion 2 oz. of chilled avocado ranch spread onto the bottom half of each ciabatta roll. Top with a hot grilled chicken cutlet, grilled red bell pepper slices, and baby red and green lettuces. Cap with the top roll half, cut diagonally, and serve immediately.

Chef Notes & Side Dish Pairing

Flavor Concentrate Dry Rub Technique: Rubbing poultry cutlets with dry RC Ranchero Flavor Concentrate forms a sticky, smoky tomato-chili film that caramelizes instantly over high grill heat, locking in natural poultry juices.

Oven Roasted Base Spread Enrichment: Incorporating RC No Added MSG Oven Roasted Chicken Base directly into the avocado-ranch spread deepens slow-roasted savory notes that balance the cool, creamy avocado fats.

Value-Added Side Suggestion: Pair this artisan sandwich with RC Fire Works Coleslaw (featuring RC Fire Works Sauce Mix) for a high-margin, spicy-crisp side combination on casual dining menus.
