Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Chicken Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and ensure they are well coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is nicely charred. Remove from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the chicken is resting, slice the tomato and red onion thinly. Prepare the lettuce by rinsing and patting dry.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise on each burger bun. Layer the lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and red onions on the bottom half of the bun. Slice the grilled chicken and place it on top of the vegetables. Cover with the top half of the bun.
