Ingredients
  

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 6 slices bacon
  • 6 slices bread your favorite type
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup lettuce, shredded
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • Optional: avocado slices

Equipment

  • Skillet or Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper (if baking bacon)
  • paper towels
  • Toaster
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • spatula

Method
 

  1. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  3. Cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and no longer pink inside. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing or shredding.
  4. Cook the bacon using your preferred method (oven or skillet) until crispy. For the oven method, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lay bacon slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes. For the skillet method, cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until crispy.
  5. Drain the bacon on paper towels.
  6. Toast the bread slices to your desired level of golden brown.
  7. Spread mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice.
  8. On one slice of bread, layer lettuce, tomato, and sliced (or shredded) chicken.
  9. Add the crispy bacon on top of the chicken.
  10. Optional: Add avocado slices for extra creaminess.
  11. Top with the remaining slice of bread, mayonnaise-side down.
  12. Cut the sandwich in half (or into quarters) and serve immediately.

Notes

For a spicy kick, add a dash of hot sauce or a smear of chipotle mayo. Add a slice of cheese, such as cheddar, Swiss, or provolone, for extra flavor and creaminess. Melt the cheese under the broiler for a warm and gooey sandwich. To prevent a soggy sandwich, make sure your lettuce and tomato are thoroughly dried before assembling. Cook the chicken and bacon in advance and store them in the refrigerator. Wash and chop the lettuce and tomato ahead of time.
