Grilled: Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches
Instructions:
Begin by trimming the chicken breasts. Place the chicken in a large bowl, then combine pepper, salt, garlic powder, paprika, Frank's buffalo sauce, beer, and olive oil. Marinate the chicken in this mixture to infuse it with flavor.
Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30-60 minutes to absorb the flavors fully. In the meantime, slice the tomatoes. Then prepare the lettuce and cheese for the sandwich toppings.
Grill the marinated chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 178 degrees Fahrenheit (81 degrees Celsius). After grilling, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.
While grilling, don't discard the marinade. Instead, use it to brush onto the chicken occasionally. This enhances the flavor and keeps the chicken moist during the cooking process.
After the chicken has rested, slice each breast lengthwise in half to reduce its thickness, making it more suitable for a sandwich. Brush Frank's buffalo sauce onto the cut side of the chicken breasts. The amount of sauce used can be adjusted according to personal taste preferences, but aim for a light coating to enhance the buffalo flavor without overwhelming the chicken.
Resting Time: Allow the chicken to rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. Resting helps the chicken reabsorb its juices.
Place the buffalo sauce-coated chicken breast halves on buns. Add the prepared tomato slices, lettuce, cheese, and any other toppings you prefer. Serve the sandwiches.
