Place chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to even thickness.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Brush chicken breasts with the spice mixture and let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Grill the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (75Β°C).
While chicken is grilling, slice the tomato into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Spread about one tablespoon of mayonnaise on the inside of each half of the hamburger buns.
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and toast the buns, cut side down, until golden brown.
Assemble the sandwich by placing lettuce leaves on the bottom buns, followed by grilled chicken breast and tomato slices.
Top with the remaining half of the buns and serve immediately.
