Ingredients
1 tbsp BBQ Chicken & Rib Rub
4 burger buns (split)
1/2 tbsp Roasted Garlic Aioli Mix
1 lb (450 g) boneless
skinless chicken breasts (about 2 breasts)
1/2 tsp lemon juice (optional)
8 leaves butter lettuce
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 medium tomato
2 tsp oil + more for brushing
Preparation
In a small bowl, combine aioli mix, mayo, and lemon juice, if using. Set aside.
Preheat grill to medium-high. Lightly brush with oil.
In a small bowl, whisk together rub and oil. Cut chicken breasts in half, widthwise. Coat chicken with wet rub. Place on grill. Grill with lid closed until cooked, about 7–8 min per side. Add buns for the last 1 min of cooking and grill until lightly toasted.
Meanwhile slice tomato.
To assemble, spread toasted buns with 1 tbsp aioli per sandwich, or more, as desired. Divide chicken, tomato, and lettuce between buns.
