Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub the mixture over the chicken breasts and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill or Bread the Chicken

    For grilled chicken, preheat the grill to medium heat and cook the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. For breaded chicken, set up a breading station with flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in the egg, and coat with breadcrumbs. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the breaded chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Rolls

    Slice the bulky rolls in half and lightly toast them if desired.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each roll. Place a layer of lettuce followed by a slice of tomato. Add the grilled or breaded chicken breast on top and close the sandwich with the top half of the roll.
