I prefer Italian food, but my brother is a big fan of Mexican cooking. I combined my preferences with his and came up with this recipe. He loved it. If you prefer a spicier flavor, just use hotter salsa. —Carly Curtin, Ellicott City, Maryland

2-1/4 cups bread flour
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon active dry yeast

In bread machine pan, place the first eight ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed).
Meanwhile, for filling, in a large skillet, saute onion and pepper in oil until crisp-tender. Stir in the chicken, salsa, cheese, beans and seasonings; heat through. Remove from the heat; set aside.

This sandwich was delicious, it tasted like a burrito.

Used a left over roasted chicken, left out the cumin-not a fan. Otherwise would not change a thing! Also delicious reheated in the oven @250 for about 18 min.

I made several changes, the first of which was not using a bread machine, since I don't have one. I dissolved the yeast in the water (but at 90-110 degrees), then added the rest of the dough ingredients (except the milk powder, which I left out), and kneaded it with my mixer until smooth (around 7ish minutes). Then I sprayed with Pam and covered to let double (around 30 minutes). I also used mozzarella and cheddar instead of the Mexican blend because I wanted to use my mozzarella that I had left over. It was really tasty, and it looked really nice.

This was good. I had to add water to the dough to get it to form, but it came out really crispy and with a good flavor. I enjoyed the filling as well. This was definitely big though. I didn't find there was too much filling for the amount of dough.

The dough was wonderful and crisped up nicely, even without using the egg wash.

The filling was WAY TOO MUCH; we will reduce by 1/2 the next time we make it (or double the dough and make 2).

We made it vegetarian by substituting shredded cabbage and corn for the chicken.

This recipe is mild, I will add more spice to it next time, but it was so delicious!
