I was perusing Plain Chicken, one of my favorite blogs to follow, when I came across Steph’s great recipe for grilled Italian chicken tenders. I thought to myself, “Self? What do you think about making sandwiches from this recipe?” So that’s what I did. And, boy, what great grilled Italian chicken sandwiches they were! The chicken has a great Italian flavor, complimented by the fresh toppings.

Grilled Italian Chicken Sandwiches

You won’t be disappointed with these grilled Italian chicken sandwiches. You don’t have to use chicken tenders. Any cut of boneless chicken will do. I’m a big fan of chicken thighs so next time I make these I’ll use thighs instead.

Also try my grilled Jamaican jerk chicken sandwiches.
