Directions

1. In a small bowl, add egg yolk, oil, lime juice, chipotle, paprika, mustard, honey, salt, and pepper. Use an immersion blender to blend all the ingredients together until the mayo is thickened and smooth.
2. In a cast iron skillet or frying pan, cook bacon to desired crispness. Reserve the fat, if desired. Set the bacon on a wire rack or paper lined plate to drain.
3. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. In the cast iron skillet or frying pan, heat a tablespoon of high-heat oil over medium high heat. Cook chicken breasts, 3 minutes on both sides, or until chicken is cooked through. Set aside on a plate to rest for 3-5 minutes. Slice the cooked chicken breasts width-wise to prep for the sandwiches.
4. Preheat your panini press to medium high heat. Spread softened butter or residual bacon fat over one side of each piece of bread, then spread a spoonful of chipotle mayo over the other side of the slices of bread. Stack bacon, chicken, tomato, cheese, and on the mayo side, then top with the butter side.
5. Press in panini press for 5 minutes, until cheese is melted and bread is well toasted.
6. Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
