Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Chicken Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, pour the marinade over the chicken, seal or cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 2 hours.

Grilling and Assembly

  1. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).

  2. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the chicken is grilling, cut the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until they are golden brown.

  3. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Once the chicken is done, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. On the bottom half of each toasted bun, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise, place a lettuce leaf, followed by slices of tomato, and then the grilled chicken breast. Top with the other half of the bun.
