Grilled Chicken Sammich with Creamy Red Pepper Sauce

I submitted a recipe awhile back for my cooking board's recipe swap for a sandwich and sauce that I created, but I couldn't seem to get around to blogging it myself! Well, this weekend during my cook-a-thon I finally succeeded! The sauce is super-delish and also goes great with burgers...you should try it ASAP!! I didn't have any bacon on had as the recipe calls for, which would have made the sammich even more amazing, but my mouth was singing it's praises anyway, especially since we had it on Hawaiian Sweet Bread Rolls!!
