Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Dill pickle juice
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Brioche buns
- 2 tablespoons Butter, softened
- 4 pieces Leaf lettuce
- 1 large Tomato, sliced
Instructions
Pound each chicken breast to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch to ensure even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the dill pickle juice, buttermilk, honey, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, paprika, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in the marinade, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels.
Grill the chicken breasts for about 5-6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is grilling, butter the brioche buns and toast them on the grill until golden brown.
To assemble the sandwich, place a grilled chicken breast on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
Top the chicken with a piece of leaf lettuce, a slice of tomato, and the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your soy-free Chick-fil-A style grilled chicken sandwich!
