Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 4 pieces Tomato slices
• 8 pieces Bread slices (such as sourdough or whole wheat)
• 2 tablespoons Butter

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Cook the chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Stir well to combine and set aside.

Step 4

Butter one side of each bread slice lightly. Toast the buttered side of the bread over medium heat in a clean skillet until golden and crisp. Remove from the heat.

Step 5

Assemble the sandwiches by spreading the lemon mayonnaise onto the untoasted side of the bread slices.

Step 6

Layer the lettuce leaves, sliced chicken, and tomato slices on four of the bread slices. Top each with another slice of bread, toasted side facing outward.

Step 7

Cut the sandwiches in half if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy your Chicken Sandwiches with Lemon Mayonnaise!
