Ingredients

Marinade

  • 3/4 tsp Garlic powder to taste
  • 3/4 tsp Dried oregano to taste
  • 2 TBSP Lemon juice to taste
  • 6 TBSP Extra-virgin olive oil to taste

Seasoning

  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste

Sandwich

  • 8 oz Chicken breast boneless skinless butterflied
  • 2 Brioche buns
  • 2 TBSP Mayonnaise
  • 2 cups Butter lettuce
  • 4 slices Tomato
  • 2 slices Swiss cheese
  • 1/4 cup Red onion sliced thin

Carrots and Ranch

  • ½ cup Carrots peeled and cut into sticks or use baby carrots
  • ½ cup Ranch dressing

Homemade Lemonade

  • 1 cup Lemon juice fresh squeezed
  • 16 oz Water
  • 2 TBSP Sugar use to taste
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  • Preheat a grill or griddle pan on medium heat.
  • In a bowl whisk together the ingredients for the marinade. Season with salt and pepper. (Marinade should taste good on its own; adjust the seasonings to taste.) (Set about half of the marinade aside to brush on each bun.)
  • Make the chicken: Brush the chicken with the marinade on one side and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the brushed side of the chicken on the grill or griddle pan, then brush more marinade over the top; once nicely marked (about 6 minutes), flip the chicken over, and brush with reserved marinade for the chicken. Close the grill (or cover the pan with a lid) and cook for another 6 minutes to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) using a thermometer. Once cooked, set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Brush the inside of each bun with the marinade. Lightly grill or toast to a golden brown. Then set aside.
  • Make the sandwich: Spread mayo on the inside of both halves of the bread. Layer with lettuce, tomato, chicken, cheese, and onion.
  • Mix the ingredients for the homemade lemonade.
  • Serve the Greek grilled chicken sandwiches with a side of carrots and ranch for dipping, and a glass of lemonade, over ice if desired.
