Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Chicken Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Coat the Chicken

    Add the boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the marinade and ensure they are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the hot grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 5

    Rest the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    While the chicken is resting, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill if desired.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf on each, followed by a slice of the grilled chicken. Add a slice of tomato and cheese (if using) on top. Finish with the top half of the bun.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Serve the chicken sandwiches immediately with your favorite side, such as fries or a salad.
