Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Hamburger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 4 pieces Tomato slices
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the marinade by whisking together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are fully coated. Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 2 hours for extra flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard any excess marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Avoid overcooking to keep the chicken tender and juicy.
While the chicken is grilling, toast the hamburger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes or until lightly golden and crisp.
Assemble the sandwiches by placing a piece of grilled chicken on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a lettuce leaf, tomato slice, and a dollop of mayonnaise, if using. Finish with the top half of the bun.
Serve the sandwiches hot with your favorite side dishes like fries, coleslaw, or a simple green salad.
