Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them evenly. Let them marinate for 15-30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread and Lettuce

    While the chicken is marinating, wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Set aside. Also, prepare your sandwich bread by laying out 4 slices on a clean surface.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breasts for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread. Place a grilled chicken breast on two slices of bread, top with lettuce, and cover with the remaining slices of bread.

  2. 5

    Final Touch

    Press down gently on the sandwiches, cut them in half if desired, and serve immediately.
