Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 Boneless chicken breast
- 0.5 cup Peri Peri sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Gluten-free buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 1 Sliced tomato
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 Red onion
Instructions
Slice the chicken breasts horizontally to create four thin cutlets.
In a shallow bowl, mix Peri Peri sauce, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken cutlets in the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat a grill or griddle pan over medium-high heat.
Cook the marinated chicken cutlets for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and slightly charred.
While the chicken cooks, mix mayonnaise, lemon juice, and garlic powder in a small bowl to make a quick garlic mayo.
Toast the gluten-free buns lightly on the grill for a minute.
Assemble the sandwiches: Spread the garlic mayo on the bottom half of each bun, layer with a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, a chicken cutlet, a few slices of red onion, and top with the other half of the bun.
Serve warm and enjoy your Gluten-Free Peri Peri Chicken Sandwich!
