Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Total Time30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 300 g (10.5 oz) chicken breasts
  • 80 g 2 large pickles, sliced
  • ¼ cup pickle juice, 60 ml
  • Burger buns (multigrain or whole wheat), as needed
  • ½ tsp oil for grilling
  • For the marinade:
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp celery salt
  • ½ tsp oregano

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, celery salt, oregano, and 1/4 cup of pickle juice. Mix well to create the marinade. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or preferably 2 hours for the flavors to enhance.
  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat and add the oil for grilling. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, shaking off any excess liquid. Place the chicken breasts on the hot grill pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. To create grill marks, use a pair of tongs to carefully rotate the chicken 45 degrees without flipping it. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes.
  • Flip the chicken breasts and repeat step 5, rotating them another 45 degrees to create crisscross grill marks. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until thoroughly cooked and reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  • While the chicken is cooking, lightly toast the burger buns on a separate pan or in the oven.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill pan and let it rest for a few minutes before assembling the sandwich.
  • To assemble the Chik-fil-A Grilled Chicken Sandwich, cut the burger buns in half horizontally.
  • Place a grilled chicken breast on the bottom half of each bun. Add the sliced pickles and top with the other half of the bun.
  • Serve and enjoy your homemade Chik-fil-A Grilled Chicken Sandwich!
