Ingredients
SHISHITO RELISH:
  • 8 oz. Shishito Peppers, blistered and chopped
  • 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp. Kosher Salt
  • 3 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • ¼ cup Sherry Vinegar (NOT Sherry Cooking Wine)
  • ½ tsp. Sugar
MISO-LIME MAYONNAISE:
  • ¾ cup Mayonnaise
  • Juice of 1 Lime, about 2 tbsp.
  • 1 tsp. White Miso Paste
  • ½ tsp. Dry English Mustard
FOR THE SUBS:
  • 2 Chicken Breasts, butterflied in half
  • 1 tbsp. Salt
  • 2 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 2 tsp. Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp. Onion Powder
  • ¼ cup Pickled Red Onions
  • 2 tbsp. Chopped Chives
  • 1 tbsp. Chopped Cilantro
  • Baguette or Sub Rolls, lightly toasted
Instructions
  1. Rinse the shishito peppers and dab dry with a towel. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil and salt. Roast at 450F for 8 - 10 minutes, making sure to flip halfway through.
  2. Allow the peppers to cool, then chop and mix together in a bowl with minced garlic, sherry vinegar, and sugar. Set aside to marinate together.
  3. Whisk all ingredients for the miso-lime mayonnaise in a small bowl and set in the refrigerator until you're ready to assemble the sandwiches.
  4. Slice the chicken breasts in half, lengthwise and place in a bowl or bag to marinate with the salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and onion powder.
  5. Sauté the chicken on medium-high heat, until the internal temperature has reached 165F. Remove from heat and allow to rest on a cutting board for at least 10 minutes.
  6. To assemble the sandwiches, add a layer of the miso-lime mayonnaise to each side of a toasted roll, then from the bottom up add your desired amount of shishito relish, chicken breasts, pickled red onions, chopped chives, and cilantro. Serve immediately.
