Ingredients

  • 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breasts horizontally to create four thin cutlets.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, mix Peri Peri sauce, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Cook the marinated chicken cutlets for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and slightly charred.

Step 6

While the chicken cooks, mix mayonnaise, lemon juice, and garlic powder in a small bowl to make a quick garlic mayo.

Step 7

Toast the gluten-free buns lightly on the grill for a minute.

Step 8

Assemble the sandwiches: Spread the garlic mayo on the bottom half of each bun, layer with a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, a chicken cutlet, a few slices of red onion, and top with the other half of the bun.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy your Gluten-Free Peri Peri Chicken Sandwich!
