Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Chicken Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the marinade and ensure they are well coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  2. 4

    Rest the Chicken

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

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    Slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly, if desired.

  2. 6

    Layer the Ingredients

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato (sliced), the cooked chicken, and a slice of cheddar cheese on top.

  3. 7

    Finish the Sandwich

    Top with the other half of the bun and press down gently. Serve immediately.
