Method

Prepare Chicken

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Grill the chicken on medium-high heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked (165°F internal temperature). Alternatively, you can pan-fry the chicken in a skillet with a little olive oil.

Prepare Toppings

  1. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

    Wash and slice the large tomato into thin rounds.

  3. 5

    Prepare the Lettuce

    Wash and dry the lettuce leaves.

Assemble Sandwich

  1. 6

    Butter the Bread

    Spread butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.

  2. 7

    Grill the Bread

    Place the slices, buttered side down, on a skillet over medium heat. Grill until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 8

    Layer the Ingredients

    On one slice of grilled sourdough, layer the cooked chicken, top with 2 slices of American cheese, crispy bacon, lettuce, and tomato. Spread mayonnaise on the other slice of bread.

  4. 9

    Complete the Sandwich

    Place the slice with mayonnaise on top of the layered ingredients. Press down gently.
