bbq chicken sandwich

My sister told me about this incredible BBQ chicken sandwich that she had while eating out one day for lunch. She told me that I needed to make something like the sandwich she had so I did just that. I made this sandwich using leftovers that I had in the fridge along with some pickled items. This sandwich was cheesy, smoky from the BBQ sauce and had a great balance of acidity from the pickled onions and jalapeños. Definitely make this sandwich if you don’t know what to do with leftover chicken breast. I highly recommend this one!
