Ingredients

Easy Ranch Marinade

  • 4 thin cut Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 2 oz. dry Hidden Valley Ranch Salad Dressing Mix (two 1 oz. packets) OR 6 Tbsp Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Mix
  • 1/2 cup Avocado Oil or Canola Oil
  • 1/4 cup Red Wine Vinegar

Grilled Chicken Sandwich

  • 4 Hamburger Buns OR use this Homemade Hamburger Buns Recipe
  • 8 slices cooked Bacon use this Perfect Crispy Bacon in Oven Trick
  • 2 fresh Avocados sliced
  • 4 pieces Leaf Lettuce
  • 2 Tbsp. Lite House Ranch Dressing

Instructions

  • In small mixing bowl, combine Red Wine Vinegar, Oil and Ranch Powder Mix, and stir well.
  • Add mixture and chicken to Freezer Ziploc Bag.
  • Place in the refrigerator to marinate for several hours or overnight, turning and flipping several times.
  • When ready for dinner, remove the chicken from the bag, toss the marinade out, and get ready to grill!
  • Grill your pre-marinated chicken on the grill outside (8 minutes on each side at 400 degrees or until internal temperature of your chicken is 165 degrees), or on a grill pan inside.
  • Build your chicken sandwich… bun, grilled chicken, fresh avocado slices, bacon, ranch dressing and lettuce, and ENJOY!!

Notes

To flatten your chicken breast to an even thickness, simply place the chicken breast between two large pieces of plastic wrap.  Then using the flat side of a meat mallet or tenderizer, gently pound your chicken breast flat, starting in the middle.
If you’re not ready to cook the chicken yet… after adding the chicken and marinade to the bag, place directly in the freezer for some pre-marinated chicken later!  Just pull out of the freezer, and thaw in the fridge… letting all of the yummy flavors soak into the chicken prior to cooking.
