Methods:
- Gather all materials.
- Cook chicken in a pan for approximately 5 minutes on each side, until slightly browned and cooked through.
- Place chicken, avocado, red onion, tomatoes, queso fresco, and cilantro on the bottom half of a torta roll.
- Top with some Sour Cream Lime Dressing and torta top, then transfer to a pan with a bit of oil. Press the tortas with a heavy pot until toasted. I used the same cast iron skillet I used to cook the chicken. You could also use a pot weighted with water if you don't have a heavy pot.
