Chicken and Marinade

Toppings

Cranberry Aioli

Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well with the marinade. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).

Cooking the Bacon

  1. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

Cranberry Aioli Preparation

  1. 4

    Mix the Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, cranberry sauce, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Stir until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On a serving plate, place a grilled chicken breast. Top with crispy bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, and sliced apples. Drizzle with cranberry aioli. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
