Ingredients
- 4 lices thick cut bacon
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- freshly ground black pepper
- 4 lices Swiss cheese
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 4 whole grain buns
- lettuce
Instructions
- Cut the bacon in half crosswise into eight pieces. Cook in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy. Remove and set aside. Drain all but one tablespoon of the bacon fat from the pan and return it to the heat.
- While the bacon is cooking, prep the chicken. Cut each breast in half crosswise. Using a meat mallet, a rolling pin, or other heavy object, pound each breast to a uniform thickness. Season with ground black pepper.
- Cook the chicken breasts in the bacon fat until golden brown and done throughout. Add a touch of olive oil if needed during cooking.
- While the chicken breasts are cooking, wrap the buns in aluminum foil and warm in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes. Remove and keep warm until needed.
- When the breasts are done, top each with two pieces of cooked bacon and a slice of Swiss cheese. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and cook until the cheese has melted.
- Combine the mayonnaise and mustard in a small bowl. Spread each cut side of a bun with the mayo-mustard mixture. Top each with lettuce and one cooked chicken breast.
Notes
- Use thick-cut bacon for meatiness in every bite. Substitute turkey bacon if you like.
- Use either fresh or defrosted frozen skinless chicken breasts. Substitute thighs if you prefer dark meat.
- Swiss cheese is lovely but can be substituted with provolone, cheddar, or mozzarella.
