Steps:
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Prick chicken breasts all over with a fork. Place chicken breasts, 1/4 cup olive oil, white wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic and herb seasoning, ground black pepper, and chopped fresh dill in a bowl. Stir to coat chicken breasts completely. Let stand for 10 minutes.
- Remove chicken breasts from marinade, discard marinade, and grill chicken for 10 to 15 minutes on each side, or until juices run clear and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a breast reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove from grill; let stand for 5 minutes. Cut chicken breasts in half.
- Melt butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle garlic powder and salt over butter and oil. Add French bread slices to the pan and toast until golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes; remove from pan.

Spread mayonnaise on bread; top with a slice of tomato, salt and ground black pepper to taste, half a grilled chicken breast, and lettuce. Spread untoasted side of another slice of bread with mayonnaise and place on top to make a sandwich.

MY SIGNATURE CHICKEN SANDWICH
We were really surprised at how much we enjoyed this sandwich. It was warm, gooey, and had a nice crisp from the bacon. The melted Swiss cheese and bacon combo with really yummy with a big hearty chicken breast. We were leery of no condiments but dipping this sandwich in BBQ sauce was really the perfect touch. It's so satisfying...

Tips:
- To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
- For a crispier chicken sandwich, cook the chicken over medium-high heat until it has nice grill marks and is cooked through.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the chicken in a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to grease the pan well to prevent the chicken from sticking.
