These sandwiches were really tasty and unique. They were definitely unlike any sandwich that I have ever had. We really liked the avocado sauce but I would definitely at least double the amount of the green Tabasco that it calls for - it could have used more of a kick. The mango adds a little bit of flavor, but not a ton so even though I am not a huge mango fan I didn't mind it in my sandwich. The avocado is what really made this meal. Yummy!
The sweet potatoes that we ate as a side dish were just something that I threw together. I peeled the sweet potatoes and cut them into rounds. I sprinkled them with chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, a little bit of brown sugar and salt and pepper. I made an aluminum dish out of aluminum foil and put a little bit of olive oil to cover the bottom and then threw those babies on the barbecue to cook with our chicken. Oh. My. Yummy! Honestly, they were my favorite part of this meal!
