Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 2h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 2

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (16 ounce) bottle Italian-style salad dressing

Steps:

  • To Marinate: Pour salad dressing into a large, resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts, seal bag and shake to coat. Place in refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight (the longer you marinate, the more taste the chicken will absorb).
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken from bag, discarding remaining marinade. Place chicken in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. Note: Turn chicken occasionally while baking.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The best Italian chicken club sandwiches start with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Look for chicken breasts that are free-range and organic, and use ripe tomatoes, avocado, and bacon.
  • Cook the chicken properly: The chicken is the star of the show in this sandwich, so it's important to cook it properly. Grill or pan-fry the chicken breasts until they are cooked through but still juicy. Don't overcook the chicken, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality bread: The bread is another important part of the Italian chicken club sandwich. Use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the fillings, such as a ciabatta roll or a sourdough baguette.
  • Don't skimp on the toppings: The toppings are what make the Italian chicken club sandwich so delicious. Be generous with the avocado, tomato, bacon, and cheese. You can also add other toppings, such as lettuce, sprouts, or a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Serve the sandwich immediately: The Italian chicken club sandwich is best served immediately after it is made. The bread will get soggy if you let it sit for too long.

Conclusion:

The Italian chicken club sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for lunch or dinner. With its combination of grilled chicken, avocado, tomato, bacon, and cheese, it's sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty meal, give the Italian chicken club sandwich a try.
