Bacon Wrapped Grilled Chicken Sandwich

"As a kid I'd marvel over a neighborhood friend's family having sandwich night every Friday evening. Not just any sandwich slapped on 2 pieces of bread, but at my young age, seemingly exotic combinations compared to our regular of rice and gravy. Well, as years flew by, I've come to appreciate 'speciality' sandwich combos that's easy on the cook and flavorful enough to qualify as 'dinner'."

When chicken is near done, place avocado slices on top of chicken then top with Swiss cheese. Grill just until cheese is melted. Remove chicken from grill and place on Texas toast or buns with toppings of choice.

  1. Gailann, my dear, you are genius! Make me wish I'd grown up in a neighborhood where I could be inspired! LOL This sandwich was delectable. I must admit that I did not even like guacamole until my 20's (I had a friend who called it 'grasshopper guts' - go figure) and had never tried avocado on a sandwich before. You've now remedied that! I could taste the flavor of the citrus/garlic/pepper marinade, which provided a nice canvas for the bacon, swiss and avocado. YUM! I did use sub rolls, as I had them on hand. I will surely throw this into my summertime 'dinner solution' rotation. Thanks so much for sharing!
     
  2. AMAZING! Really wonderful.
     
  3. Great sandwich! We don't like Swiss cheese so we did provolone cheese. I forgot to put bacon on it-BUMMER! Bacon makes everything better, oh well next time for sure. Thank you for a simple recipe I always have lemon and lime juice on hand so it was perfect for us.
     
  4. Going to try this one but I'll also use a little lemon pepper on the chicken and provolone cheese instead of swiss
