Our easy herb-marinated chicken sandwich, with its finishing touch of sweet-smoky honey mustard, is more delicious than its fast-food counterpart, with fresher veggie toppings and super-moist, just-off-the grill chicken. You can use either an outdoor grill or a stovetop grill pan; if using the latter, be sure to follow our instructions to loosely tent the pan with foil so that you create an environment similar to a closed grill.
Ingredients
Cooking spray
4 spray(s)
Uncooked boneless skinless chicken breast(s)
1 pound(s)
Light Italian dressing
4 Tbsp
Dijon mustard
2.5 Tbsp
Light mayonnaise
1.5 Tbsp
Honey
1 Tbsp
Smoked paprika
0.5 tsp
Light whole wheat hamburger buns
4 bun(s)
Lettuce
4 leaf/leaves, large
Tomato(es)
4 slice(s)
Instructions
1
Arrange the chicken in a single layer in an 11 x 7–inch baking dish. Pierce the chicken all over with a fork. Drizzle the dressing over the chicken, and turn the chicken to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes, turning the chicken over occasionally.
2
Coat an outdoor grill rack or a large stovetop grill pan with cooking spray. Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to fall back into the dish; discard the excess marinade. Arrange the chicken on the grill rack or grill pan. Close the grill lid, or tent the grill pan loosely with foil. Grill until the chicken is well marked and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
3
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, mayonnaise, honey, and smoked paprika. Spread the sauce evenly over both sides of the buns. On the bottom half of each bun, arrange 1 chicken cutlet, 1 lettuce leaf, 1 tomato slice, and top half of the bun.
