Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, wash and slice the lettuce, tomato, and onion. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Grill Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  2. 4

    Cook Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. This should take about 5-6 minutes. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess fat.

  3. 5

    Melt Cheese

    During the last minute of grilling the chicken, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each chicken breast to melt.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble Sandwich

    Toast the hamburger buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes. Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, grilled chicken with melted cheese, crispy bacon, tomato slices, and onion slices. Top with the other half of the bun.
