Method
Preparing the Chicken
Prepare the Chicken Breasts
Start by placing the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound the chicken to an even thickness of about 1 inch.
Season the Chicken
In a small bowl, mix the blackening spice and salt together. Rub the mixture generously over both sides of the chicken breasts.
Cook the Chicken
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a blackened crust. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
Assembling the Burger
Toast the Buns
While the chicken is resting, cut the burger buns in half and toast them on a skillet or in a toaster until golden brown.
Slice the Tomato
Wash the tomato and slice it into thick slices.
Build the Burger
On the bottom half of each toasted bun, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise. Place a lettuce leaf on top, followed by the blackened chicken breast, a slice of cheddar cheese, and tomato slices. Add pickles on top and finish with the top half of the bun.
