Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Gluten-free sandwich bread
- 1 piece Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 4 slices Bacon
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
- 1 medium, sliced Tomato
- 0.5 sliced Avocado
Instructions
Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with olive oil, salt, and black pepper on both sides.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until it is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Once cooked, set aside to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is grilling, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it is crispy. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate.
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard to create a spread.
Toast the gluten-free bread slices until golden brown, if desired.
To assemble the sandwich, spread the mayonnaise and mustard mixture on one side of each slice of bread.
Layer the lettuce leaves, sliced tomato, avocado, and grilled chicken on two slices of the bread.
Place two slices of bacon on top of the chicken on each sandwich.
Top with the remaining bread slices, mayo side down, slice the sandwiches in half, and serve immediately.
