Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 4 cutlets), about 1 lbs total
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1-2 teaspoons water to thin
  • 8 sourdough bread slices
  • Lettuce
  • Sliced tomato
  • Sliced red onion
  • Pickles
  • Avocado slices


Instructions

  1. Slice each chicken breast horizontally into 2 cutlets and pound to an even ¾-inch thickness.
  2. Marinate the chicken cutlets in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken cutlets for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear.
  4. While the chicken is grilling, prepare the sauce by mixing mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, lemon juice, honey, pinch of salt, and water in a small bowl until smooth.
  5. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  6. Toast the sourdough bread slices on the grill until golden brown.
  7. Assemble the sandwiches with grilled chicken, lettuce, sliced tomato, sliced red onion, pickles, avocado slices, and drizzle the sriracha mayo sauce on top. Serve immediately.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken longer, ideally overnight.
Feel free to customize toppings based on your preference like cheese or different veggies.
This sandwich pairs well with sweet potato fries or a side salad.
