Ingredients

  • 2 whole chicken breast
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 1 large onion
  • 8 slices bread
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Season the 2 chicken breasts with 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (no pink inside). Remove and let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.

  3. 3

    In the same skillet, cook the 8 bacon slices over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side until crispy. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and the 1 sliced onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Toast the 8 bread slices in a toaster or under the broiler until golden. Assemble sandwiches with chicken, bacon, and onions. Serve warm.
