Sandwich Ingredients
Method
Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating, take the boneless chicken breasts and lightly pound them to ensure even cooking.
- 2
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Coat the chicken breasts evenly with this mixture and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- 3
Grill the Chicken
Once the grill is ready, place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
- 4
Prepare the Buns
While the chicken is grilling, slice the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- 5
Assemble the Sandwich
Once the chicken is fully cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice the tomato into thin rounds. Spread 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise on each toasted bun half.

Finish the Sandwich
Layer the lettuce leaves on the bottom half of the bun, followed by the grilled chicken breast and tomato slices. Place the top half of the bun on top and gently press down.
