Southern Chicken Sandwich Recipe

Instructions for Southern Chicken Sandwich

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. If grilling, preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If frying, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

2. 2

   Cook the Chicken

   Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F). If frying, cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through.

3. 3

   Cook the Bacon

   In the same skillet or in the oven, bake the bacon until crispy. This usually takes about 15 minutes at 400°F.

4. 4

   Prepare the Avocado

   Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado into thin pieces.

5. 5

   Assemble the Sandwich

   On the bottom half of the brioche bun, layer the lettuce, cooked chicken, bacon, avocado slices, pickled red onions, and a generous drizzle of ranch dressing. Top with the other half of the bun.

6. 6

   Serve

   Cut the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately.
