Chicken Marinade

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the leftover marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 5

    Rest the Chicken

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

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 6

    Prepare the Bread

    Toast the slices of whole grain sandwich bread if desired.

  2. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

    Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread. On the bottom slice, layer lettuce, sliced grilled chicken, tomato, avocado, and cheese (if using). Top with another slice of bread.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately.
