Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups ketchup
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon hot sauce
Olive oil, for lightly coating the chicken
4 chicken cutlets, pounded to 1/2 inch thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 potato buns
Mayonnaise, for spreading
1 medium red onion, sliced
16 bread-and-butter pickle slices

Steps:

  • For the barbecue sauce: In a medium saucepot over medium heat, add the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, dark brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, garlic powder, dry mustard, onion powder, hot sauce and 1 cup water and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cook until the sauce is thickened, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • For the chicken: Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Lightly drizzle some olive oil onto the chicken to prevent the chicken from sticking to the grill pan. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. When the grill pan is hot, add the chicken and cook until char marks appear and the chicken is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • Toss the chicken with the barbecue sauce. Let simmer on low until ready to serve, to infuse the chicken with the flavor of the sauce.
  • For the sandwich: Spread an even layer of mayonnaise on the top and bottom of a potato bun, add the chicken, a few red onion slices and 2 bread and butter pickles. Top with the other half of the potato bun.

Yum! I loved the flavor of these sandwiches. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the BBQ sauce was delicious. I would definitely make these again.

These sandwiches were a little too messy to eat, but they were still really good. I think I would have used a smaller bun next time.

I thought this recipe was a little too bland. I would have added more spices to the chicken and sauce.

I'm not a big fan of BBQ sauce, but these sandwiches were still really good. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the bread was toasted perfectly.

These sandwiches were delicious! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and grilled them on my gas grill. I also used a store-bought BBQ sauce and they turned out perfect.

I found the sauce to be a little too thick. I think I would have thinned it out with a little bit of water.

I thought the chicken was a little dry. I think I would have grilled it for a shorter amount of time.

These sandwiches were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more savory BBQ sauce.

I'm a huge fan of grilled chicken sandwiches, and this recipe did not disappoint. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the sauce was tangy and sweet. I used a kaiser roll, and it held up perfectly to the chicken and sauce.

I was a little skeptical about how these would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised! The chicken was perfectly cooked and the sauce was delicious. I'll definitely be making these again.

These sandwiches were a hit at my summer barbecue! Everyone loved them. I used a store-bought BBQ sauce and they turned out great.

I thought this recipe was awesome! It was really flavorful and juicy. I grilled boneless, skinless chicken thighs and used my favorite dry rub. I also added a slice of pepper jack cheese to each sandwich. So good!
