Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F or 190°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 5

    Rest the Chicken

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

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 6

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is resting, wash and dry the romaine lettuce leaves. Slice the tomato into even rounds.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each burger bun, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise. Place one lettuce leaf on top, followed by a slice of grilled chicken, and then a few slices of tomato. Top with the other half of the bun.
