Garlic Butter Grilled Chicken Lettuce & Tomato Sandwich

Garlic Butter Lettuce, Tomato & Grilled Chicken Sandwich is a hearty, flavor-packed sandwich that takes a classic combination and elevates it with rich garlic butter–toasted bread and juicy grilled chicken. Crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and optional creamy additions like cheese or avocado create the perfect balance of freshness and indulgence. It’s satisfying enough for dinner, yet simple enough for a quick lunch.

This sandwich shines because every layer is treated with care. The chicken is seasoned simply and grilled until juicy, the bread is toasted until golden and crisp with aromatic garlic butter, and the fresh vegetables add crunch and brightness. Served warm, it’s the kind of sandwich that feels comforting and crave-worthy without being complicated.
