Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 cup gluten-free dill pickle juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 pieces gluten-free hamburger buns
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 4 tablespoons gluten-free mayonnaise
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
In a bowl, combine the gluten-free soy sauce, pickle juice, honey, avocado oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to create the marinade.
Submerge the chicken breasts in the marinade, cover the bowl, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight for more flavor.
Preheat your grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the hot grill. Cook each side for about 5 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (73.9°C).
While the chicken is cooking, slice the tomato and prepare the lettuce.
Lightly toast the gluten-free hamburger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes.
Assemble the sandwich by spreading 2 tablespoons of gluten-free mayonnaise on each bun, placing a cooked chicken breast on the bottom bun, followed by 2 lettuce leaves, and some tomato slices.
Top with the second half of the bun. Serve hot and enjoy your gluten-free Chick-fil-A style grilled chicken sandwich!
