Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the Italian dressing, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

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, letting any excess drip off. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Preparing Toppings and Aioli

  1. 5

    Prepare the Garlic Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Stir until fully combined. Adjust the seasoning to taste.

  2. 6

    Prepare the Toppings

    Wash and chop the lettuce. Slice the tomato and prepare the dill pickles.

Assembling the BBQ Chicken

  1. 7

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the chicken is grilled, let it rest for a few minutes. Then, slice the chicken and place it on a plate. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, dill pickles, and drizzle with garlic aioli. Serve immediately.
