Cooking Steps
Wash and dry produce. Zest and quarter lime. Slice tomato into ¼-inch rounds. Transfer tomato slices to a plate; season with a squeeze of lime juice, salt, and pepper. Set aside to marinate.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Halve chicken lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan (large pan for 4 servings) over medium-high heat. Add chicken, 1 tsp Fajita Spice Blend, 1 TBSP butter, and 1 TBSP water (for 4, use 2 tsp Fajita Spice Blend, 2 TBSP butter, and 2 TBSP water). Cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, 2-4 minutes.
Sprinkle Mexican cheese blend over chicken mixture; cover pan and turn off heat.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, a squeeze of lime juice, and as much lime zest as you like. Taste and season with salt and pepper. TIP: For tangier mayo, add more lime juice!
Halve and toast baguettes; spread cut sides with a thin layer of zesty mayo. Fill baguettes with cheesy chicken and marinated tomato. Divide sandwiches between plates and serve.
