Equipment
- grill pan
- skillet or griddle
- small bowl for garlic butter
- spatula
- knife for slicing chicken and tomato
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried mixed herbs
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 slices sandwich bread
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 tomato, sliced
Instructions
- Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and dried herbs. Heat olive oil in a grill pan over medium heat. Cook chicken 5–6 minutes per side until cooked through. Let rest before slicing.
- Mix melted butter and minced garlic in a small bowl.
- Brush both sides of bread slices with garlic butter. Toast in a skillet or griddle over medium heat until golden and crisp.
- Layer sliced chicken, lettuce, and tomato on one slice of toasted bread. Top with second slice and press gently.

Notes
Use whole-grain or sourdough bread for extra flavor. Butter can be swapped with olive oil spread for a lighter version. Chicken thighs are a juicier alternative to breasts. Fresh herbs enhance aroma, and extras like avocado or cucumber add freshness.
