    1. Rinse a chicken breast and pat it dry. Lay it on a cutting board, cover with plastic wrap, and gently (don't overdo it!) pound it with a meat mallet so it's an even thickness all over. 2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and crumbled dried marjoram. Pour the marinade into a zip-top bag, add the pounded chicken, seal it tightly, and refrigerate to marinate for 30 minutes. 3. While the chicken marinates, prep the rest of the sandwich fixings. Cut the bacon into thin strips and cook in a dry skillet until crisp. Slice the bread into medium-thick pieces and toast them in a toaster or in a dry skillet (no oil). Thinly slice the cheese. Rinse the tomatoes and cut into rounds. Rinse and dry the green onion and lettuce; finely chop the onion and tear the larger lettuce leaves by hand. 4. In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise and mustard. 5. Once the chicken has marinated, take it out of the bag. Heat a grill pan (a regular nonstick skillet works too) and sear the chicken over medium heat for about 5 minutes per side. 6. Now build the sandwich: spread one toasted slice of bread with the mayo-mustard sauce, then top with lettuce and chopped green onion. Add the seared chicken and slices of cheese, followed by a little sour cream and the crispy bacon. Finish with tomato slices and cap with another toasted slice of bread spread with the mayo-mustard sauce. Serve the chicken sandwiches hot. You can also make them ahead for a picnic—they're just as tasty cold! Enjoy!
