Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Chicken Marinade

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove chicken from the marinade and place on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on one side until grill marks appear, then flip and grill for another 6-7 minutes until fully cooked.

  3. 5

    Rest the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 6

    Toast the Buns

    While the chicken is resting, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  2. 7

    Prepare the Tomato

    Slice the tomato into thin rounds.

  3. 8

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Layer with lettuce, sliced grilled chicken, tomato, and top with the other half of the bun.
