Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 2 pieces Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts or chicken thighs for juiciness
  • ¼ cup Honey Dijon Chicken Marinade reduce salt to ½ teaspoon for sauce use
For the Sandwich
  • 4 buns Pretzel Buns or whole grain buns for a healthier twist
  • 4 slices Swiss Cheese can substitute with cheddar or omit for dairy-free
  • 4 slices Cooked Bacon can use turkey bacon for a lighter version
Toppings (Optional)
  • 1 cup Lettuce or your favorite greens
  • 1 medium Tomato chopped

Equipment

  • Grill
  • Grill pan
  • Saucepan
  • Meat mallet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Slice the boneless skinless chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create thin cutlets. Use a meat mallet to pound them to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
  2. Place the chicken cutlets in a large freezer bag, pour in Honey Dijon marinade, seal the bag, refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or freeze for future use.
  3. Pour the reserved marinade into a saucepan, bring to a boil over medium heat and thicken for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium heat (around 400°F). Cook the marinated chicken cutlets for about 8 minutes, flipping halfway through until cooked to 165°F.
  5. Assemble the sandwiches with grilled chicken cutlet, melted Swiss cheese, broken bacon pieces, thickened Honey Dijon sauce, and top with lettuce and tomato before adding the top bun.
  6. Serve the sandwiches immediately while warm, pairing with sweet potato fries or a salad for a complete meal.
