Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by seasoning the boneless chicken breasts generously with salt, pepper, and your choice of fresh herbs. Allow the seasoned chicken to rest for about 10 minutes.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the thick-cut bacon until crispy, around 6-8 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon fat.
  3. Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet using the reserved bacon fat. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Let rest for about 5 minutes before slicing into thick strips.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise with minced garlic and chopped fresh herbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Toast sourdough slices until golden-brown and crispy.
  6. Spread a generous layer of the herb mayo on one side of each toasted sourdough slice. Layer with lettuce, ripe tomato slices, cooked chicken strips, and crispy bacon. Top with second slice of bread, mayo side down.
