Start by preparing all your ingredients: cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Slice the avocado, chop the hard-boiled eggs, and halve the cherry tomatoes.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a tangy sandwich spread.
Slice the ciabatta rolls in half horizontally and lightly toast them if desired.
Spread a generous layer of the mayonnaise mixture onto both halves of each roll.
On the bottom half of each roll, layer two pieces of romaine lettuce, followed by a portion of grilled chicken.
Next, add two slices of crispy bacon, a few slices of avocado, a spoonful of chopped hard-boiled eggs, and a handful of halved cherry tomatoes.
Sprinkle a portion of blue cheese crumbles on top of the stacked ingredients.
Place the top half of each ciabatta roll onto the sandwich and gently press down to hold the ingredients together.
Serve immediately, or wrap tightly in parchment or foil for a delicious meal on the go.
