Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the marinade bowl and ensure they are well coated. Cover 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 (190°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Place the chicken on the grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes per 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.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 6

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is resting, slice the tomato and avocado.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each burger bun. Layer with lettuce, sliced grilled chicken, tomato, avocado, and cheddar cheese. Top with the other half of the bun.

Serving the Sandwich

  1. 8

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite side.
