Chicken Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the boneless chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for more flavor).

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 3

    Grill the Chicken

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

  2. 4

    Rest the Chicken

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

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Prepare the Bread

    Toast the whole grain sandwich bread slices lightly if desired.

  2. 6

    Slice the Tomato

    Cut the tomato into thin slices.

  3. 7

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each slice of bread. Layer with lettuce leaves, sliced grilled chicken, tomato slices, and cheddar cheese. Top with the remaining slice of bread.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately with your choice of side.
