Yield Makes 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
2 Tbsp. plus 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, plus more
1/3 cup plus 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil; plus more for grill
6 Tbsp. mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped cornichons (about 9)
Kosher salt
4 large skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 1 1/2 lb. total)
4 brioche buns, split
1 medium fennel bulb, halved, thinly sliced, fronds coarsely chopped
1 cup basil leaves, torn if large

Steps:

  • Whisk mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, and 2 tsp. pepper in a medium bowl. Stream in 1/3 cup oil, whisking constantly until emulsified. Transfer half of marinade to a small bowl, then whisk in mayonnaise and cornichons; season dressing with salt. Set aside.
  • Season chicken thighs all over with salt and place in bowl with remaining marinade; turn to coat. Let sit at room temperature, turning occasionally, at least 30 minutes, or cover and chill up to 4 hours.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil grate. Grill chicken, turning halfway through, until deeply browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a platter and let rest 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, grill buns, cut side down, until lightly toasted, about 30 seconds. Transfer to platter with chicken.
  • Toss sliced fennel, fennel fronds, basil, and remaining 2 tsp. oil and 2 tsp. lemon juice in a medium bowl to combine; season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread reserved dressing over cut sides of each bun. Assemble sandwiches with buns, chicken, and fennel salad.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Chicken: Opt for boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for a tender and juicy sandwich.
  • Tenderize the Chicken: Pounding the chicken breasts or thighs helps flatten them, making them more tender and ensuring even cooking.
  • Flavorful Marinade: Marinate the chicken in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes to enhance its taste.
  • Season Wisely: Don't forget to season the chicken with salt and pepper before grilling. This simple step intensifies the natural flavors of the chicken.
  • Cook to Perfection: Grill the chicken over medium heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
  • Prepare the Buns: To elevate your sandwich, toast the buns lightly to add a crispy texture.
  • Layer with Fresh Ingredients: Layer the grilled chicken, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, and your favorite condiments on the toasted buns for a satisfying sandwich.

Conclusion:

The grilled cheddar chicken fillet sandwiches are a delightful meal that combines juicy chicken, melted cheese, and fresh ingredients for a perfect balance of flavors and textures.
