Ingredients
  

Loaded Chicken Club Ingredients
  • 2 slices Sourdough Bread Thick-cut, approx 1 inch
  • 6 oz Chicken Breast Sliced into thick strips
  • 3-4 strips Bacon Fried until crispy and wavy
  • 1/4 cup Mayonnaise For aioli base
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley Chopped, plus extra for garnish
  • 2 leaves Green Leaf Lettuce Fresh and crisp
  • 2 slices Tomato Bright red and thick-cut

Equipment

  • 1 Cast Iron Skillet or Grill Pan Used for searing chicken to get char marks.
  • 1 Toaster or Oven For toasting the sourdough.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Fry bacon strips in a pan over medium heat until deep reddish-brown and crispy. Keep them wavy for texture.
  2. Season chicken strips and sear in a hot skillet for 3-4 minutes per side until dark charred marks appear.
  3. Combine mayonnaise, chopped herbs, garlic, and lemon juice until it becomes a creamy herb-flecked white sauce.
  4. Layer aioli, lettuce, tomato, seared chicken, and wavy bacon on toasted sourdough. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

Use high-quality sourdough for the best crunch.
Ensure chicken is rested for 5 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy.
