Ingredients
Scale
Marinated Chicken:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Additional Ingredients:
- 4 sandwich rolls
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 8 slices cooked bacon
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 4 pieces leafy lettuce
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup mustard
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to create four thinner cutlets. Place each between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to about 1/2 inch thickness for even cooking.
- Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken to the bowl or a resealable bag, ensuring it’s well coated. Marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours for maximum flavor.
- Grill the Chicken: Preheat grill to high and lightly oil the grates. Grill the chicken for 2–3 minutes on each side until fully cooked (internal temp should reach 165°F (75°C)). During the last minute, place a slice of cheddar on each piece to melt.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes. Layer each roll with cheesy grilled chicken, bacon, tomato, lettuce, and your choice of mayo and mustard.
- Serve: Serve warm and relish in the flavors of this grilled chicken sandwich!
