Chicken BLT Sandwich


This is a super simple summer sandwich and delicious too!!! I have combined a few different ideas to come to this sandwich..Lets get to it!!!

Ingredients:

*Chicken breasts (I cut mine in half and then flatten them a little)
*Tomato
*Lettuce
*Bacon, cooked crisp
*Monterry jack cheese
*Aioli, recipe follows
*Toasted sourdough bread, or wheat or anything you have on hand

Directions:

Grill chicken until cooked all the way through. While chicken is still on the grill, place slices of monterry jack cheese on the chicken to melt. (While we chose to grill our chicken you could use breaded chicken too)

Aioli:
*1/4c mayonnaise
*1/4c whole-grain mustard
*1/2 lemon juiced, or 1T of lemon juice
*1T freshly chopped rosemary leaves
*1T minced garlic
*Pinch of salt and pepper
In a small bowl, whisk all the ingedients together.


Cover and place in refrigerator until ready to serve.






To assemble sandwiches, lather aioli on both sides of toasted bread. Place chicken then bacon, lettuce, and tomato on sandwich and top with the other piece of toasted bread.








(Aioli recipe is from Aaron McCargo Jr.)
