Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Marinating Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it's well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).

Cooking Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting excess marinade drip off. Cook the chicken on the grill or skillet for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove and let rest for a few minutes.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Build the Sandwich

    Spread mayonnaise and mustard on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a lettuce leaf, followed by a slice of tomato, and then the grilled chicken breast on top. If desired, add cheese slices. Top with the other half of the bun.
