Ingredients
Scale
Protein
- 1 lb chicken breasts, diced
- 4 slices bacon
Dressing & Condiments
- ½ cup ranch dressing
Vegetables
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- ½ cup diced tomatoes
Bread
- 4 pieces sandwich buns or rolls
Others
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat to prepare for cooking the chicken evenly and prevent sticking.
- Cook the chicken: Add the diced chicken breasts to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.
- Cook the bacon: While the chicken is cooking, in a separate skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then chop into small pieces.
- Combine chicken and bacon: Once the chicken is done, remove the skillet from heat; add the chopped bacon and pour in the ranch dressing. Stir everything together until well combined and coated.
- Prepare sandwich toppings: Take the sandwich buns and begin assembling by layering shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes on the bottom halves of the buns.
- Assemble sandwiches: Spoon the chicken-bacon-ranch mixture generously over the lettuce and tomatoes on each bun.
- Complete and serve: Top each sandwich with the remaining bun halves, serve immediately, and enjoy your flavorful Chopped Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich.
Notes
- You can substitute ranch dressing with a homemade version for a fresher taste.
- Use fresh sandwich buns or rolls for best texture and flavor.
- Ensure chicken is fully cooked by checking that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- For added crunch, consider toasting the sandwich buns before assembling.
- Leftover chicken mixture can be refrigerated and used within 2 days.
