Steps:
- Butterfly chicken breasts and set aside. In a food processor combine the dill and parsley and pulse until finely chopped. Reserve 1/4 cup of the herb mixture for spread, set aside.
- In a plastic bag set in a medium bowl, combine remaining herb mixture, half the lemon juice, 1/4 cup olive oil, and salt and pepper, to taste. Place chicken in a plastic bag, add marinade, seal, and massage to distribute marinade evenly on the chicken. Refrigerate 1 hour, flipping once halfway through.
- Meanwhile to make the herb spread, in a small bowl mix together remaining herb mixture, remaining lemon juice, lemon zest, sour cream, mayonnaise, pepperoncini, and salt and pepper, to taste.
- Preheat grill to medium-high. Remove chicken from bag being careful not to remove herbs. Season with salt and pepper and cook on grill, turning once, until juices run clear, approximately 6 minutes on each side. Remove to a cutting board and cut each breast in half.
- To assemble sandwich: cut ciabatta pieces in half horizontally, slather one side of bread with dill-pepperoncini spread. Place chicken on other slice, top with baby greens, and finish with the piece of bread covered with dill-pepperoncini sauce.

Steps:
- 1. Pound each chicken breast to approximately 1/2 an inch thick before cutting each breast into 2 pieces. (You will then have 6 breasts total) Marinate the chicken breasts in dill pickle juice for one hour.
- 2. Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl with a splash of milk to make the egg coating.
- 3. In another bowl, combine and mix the flour, powdered sugar, and other spices.
- 4. Pat the marinated chicken dry. Dip breasts in the egg wash, then dip in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
- 5. Heat a large skillet over medium heat with enough oil to just coat the bottom of the pan, until the oil is shimmering.
- 6. Fry each chicken breast for approximately 2 minutes per side, or until breading is golden and chicken is cooked through. Drain chicken on a paper towel-lined plate.
- 7. Butter both (inside cut) sides of hamburger buns and cook on griddle until golden brown. Place chicken on buns. Optional: Place a few dill pickle slices on top and/or serve with some honey mustard.
Tips:
- Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread that can hold up to the dill sauce and chicken is best. A good option is a kaiser roll or a potato bun.
- Make the dill sauce ahead of time: The dill sauce can be made up to 2 days in advance. This will give the flavors time to meld and develop.
- Cook the chicken thoroughly: Make sure the chicken is cooked through before assembling the sandwich. This can be done in a skillet, on a grill, or in the oven.
- Add your favorite toppings: Once the sandwich is assembled, you can add your favorite toppings. Some good options include lettuce, tomato, onion, and avocado.
Conclusion:
The dill chicken sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The dill sauce is what really makes this sandwich special, so be sure to make it ahead of time. With a few simple ingredients, you can have a delicious sandwich that the whole family will enjoy.
