Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless chicken thighs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 brioche buns
- 4 teaspoons mayonnaise
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- Lettuce, tomatoes, onions, or any favorites you love
Instructions
- Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, mix the chicken thighs with olive oil, smoked paprika powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes.
- Prep the buns: Spread mayonnaise on each half and heat them on a skillet over low-medium heat for about 3 minutes until golden brown.
- Prepare toppings: Clean and slice your chosen toppings like lettuce, tomatoes, and onions.
- Grill the chicken: Heat your grill to medium-high and cook the chicken thighs for about 5-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Once the chicken is finished, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each piece and layer the chicken and toppings onto the toasted brioche buns.
Notes
Allowing the chicken to marinate longer enhances flavor. You can also swap cheddar for your favorite cheese or add condiments like BBQ sauce.
