Directions
Step 1

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the plant-based chicken strips and cook for 3-4 minutes until they are heated through and slightly crispy.

Reduce the heat to low and pour the BBQ sauce over the chicken strips in the skillet. Stir to coat the strips evenly and allow them to simmer in the sauce for another 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Season the BBQ-coated chicken strips with salt and black pepper. Stir well so that the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Step 5
While the chicken strips are simmering in the BBQ sauce, toast the whole wheat sandwich buns in a toaster or on a skillet until lightly browned.
Step 6
Assemble the sandwiches by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
Step 7
Top the lettuce with a generous portion of the BBQ chicken strips.
Step 8
Add slices of tomato, red onion, and dill pickle on top of the BBQ chicken strips.
Step 9
Cover with the top half of the bun to complete the sandwich.
