  1. **Make the Chipotle Mayonnaise:** In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon adobo sauce from canned chipotles (adjust to taste), 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
  2. **Prepare the Rolls:** Cut the bolillo rolls in half lengthwise.
  3. **Create Space for Filling:** Gently remove some of the soft inner bread from each roll to create space for the filling.
  4. **Layer the Filling:** Spread 2 tablespoons of refried beans on the bottom half of each roll.
  5. **Add the Chicken:** Top with 1/3 cup of shredded roasted chicken.
  6. **Chipotle Mayo Magic:** Spoon 2 tablespoons of chipotle mayonnaise over the chicken.
  7. **Fresh Toppings:** Top each torta with 1/6 of a thinly sliced oso sweet onion and 1/4 cup of shredded lettuce.
  8. **Assemble and Serve:** Cover with the top halves of the rolls and serve immediately. Enjoy!
