Chicken Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    If using blackened seasoning, rub it evenly over the chicken breasts. If grilling or frying, season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and golden brown. For grilled chicken, preheat the grill and cook for the same duration.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on each chicken breast and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Toast the burger buns if desired. Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun, then layer with lettuce, the cooked chicken with melted cheese, sliced tomato, and the top half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your Bernie Chicken Sandwich!
