Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add your choice of marinade flavor and stir to combine.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken breast to the marinade, ensuring it is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 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

    Toast the Buns (Optional)

    If desired, lightly toast the onion buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  2. 7

    Build the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of the onion bun, place a leaf of lettuce, followed by the grilled chicken, a slice of tomato, and any optional cheese or pickles. Add your desired condiments on top and then close the sandwich with the top half of the bun.
