Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165Β°F). Remove from the skillet and set aside to rest.
In the same skillet, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
While the chicken and bacon cook, prepare the toppings. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Slice the tomato into thin slices.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Set aside as the sammich spread.
Toast the sandwich bread slices until golden brown. You can use a toaster or a skillet for this step.
Slice the rested chicken breasts into even strips.
Assemble the sammiches: Spread the mayo mixture on one side of each bread slice. Layer the chicken strips, bacon slices, lettuce leaves, and tomato slices on top of two bread slices. Carefully place the remaining bread slices on top to complete the sammiches.
Slice the sammiches in half if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
