Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Coat the chicken breasts in the mixture.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and juices run clear.

  3. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, sauté the sliced mushrooms until golden brown. Set aside.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On a slice of Texas toast, place the grilled chicken, followed by the crispy bacon, sautéed mushrooms, and a slice of Swiss cheese on top. Cover with another slice of Texas toast.

  6. 6

    Toast the Sandwich

    Place the assembled sandwich on the grill for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
