Chicken Marinade

Balsamic Onion Jam

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Chicken Marinade

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Balsamic Onion Jam

  1. 3

    Cook the Onions

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced red onions and cook until they are soft and translucent, about 10 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Vinegar and Sugar

    Stir in balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 20 minutes.

  3. 5

    Season the Jam

    Season with salt to taste. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 6

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 7

    Grill the Chicken

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

  3. 8

    Melt the Cheese

    During the last minute of grilling, place a slice of provolone cheese on each chicken breast to melt.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 9

    Prepare the Buns

    While the chicken is grilling, slice the brioche buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill.

  2. 10

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf. Add the grilled chicken with melted provolone on top. Next, layer with tomato and onion slices. Top with a generous spoonful of balsamic onion jam and close the sandwich with the top half of the bun.

  3. 11

    Serve

    Serve the grilled chicken sandwiches warm with your choice of sides.
