Steps

Prepare Chicken

Season the chicken breast fillets with salt and pepper to taste. Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 4-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove from the skillet, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly or dice.

Prepare Vegetables

Wash the lettuce leaves and tomato. Slice the tomato thinly, and peel and thinly slice the red onion.

Assemble Sandwich

Toast the bread slices to your liking. Spread mayonnaise on each slice. Place lettuce leaves on two slices of bread, then layer with the sliced chicken, tomato, and red onion. Cover with the remaining two slices of bread. Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.

Extra Tips

► Toast the bread slices in a pan or toaster for an extra crispy texture.

► Add a pinch of garlic powder or paprika to the chicken before cooking for more flavor.

► Experiment with different sauces, such as mustard or pesto, alongside or instead of mayonnaise.
