Method

Chicken Marinade

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  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.

Garlic Aioli

  1. 3

    Make the Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic cloves, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside in the refrigerator until needed.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 4

    Grill the Chicken

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

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare the Bread

    Slice the sandwich rolls or bread in half. Toast them lightly on the grill if desired.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of garlic aioli on the bottom half of each roll. Place the grilled chicken on top, followed by lettuce leaves and slices of the tomato. Top with the other half of the roll.
