Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 slices thick-cut bacon
- 8 slices sourdough bread
- 4 leaves green leaf lettuce
- 1 large tomato, sliced into 8 rounds
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
Instructions
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Brush chicken breasts with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 5-6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into strips.
- Meanwhile, cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- Toast bread slices until golden. Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice.
- Assemble sandwiches: on 4 bread slices, layer lettuce, tomato slices, bacon, and chicken strips. Top with remaining bread slices, mayo-side down.
- Cut sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
Tips
- For extra flavor, marinate chicken in buttermilk or a simple herb marinade for 30 minutes before grilling.
- Use leftover rotisserie chicken to save time.
- Serve with potato chips or a side salad.
