Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Season and Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Add olive oil to the skillet, then add the chicken. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).

  2. 2

    Shred the Chicken

    Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, shred the chicken using two forks.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Sandwiches

    On two slices of sandwich bread, layer shredded chicken, chopped bacon, and a slice of American cheese. Drizzle some honey BBQ sauce on top, then place the other two slices of bread on top to form sandwiches.

  2. 4

    Grill the Sandwiches

    In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the sandwiches and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. If needed, cover the skillet with a lid to help melt the cheese.

Finishing Touch

  1. 5

    Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and cut them in half. Drizzle additional honey BBQ sauce on top if desired and serve hot.
