Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the boneless chicken breasts in a zip-top bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over the chicken. Make sure the chicken is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 1-2 hours for better flavor.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 4

    Prepare the Ingredients

    While the chicken is resting, slice the tomato and prepare the lettuce leaves.

  2. 5

    Build the Sandwich

    Take two slices of whole grain bread and spread 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise on each slice. Layer lettuce leaves, sliced chicken, tomato slices, and cheese (if using) on one slice of bread. Top with the second slice of bread and press down gently.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately with your choice of side, such as chips or a salad.
