  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    How do you make a chicken club sandwich? Gather everything you'll need. Rinse the chicken breast and pat it dry with paper towels. Instead of ham, you can use thinly sliced salami, deli meat, or even smoked bacon.

    Enjoy an amazingly tasty chicken club sandwich loaded with veggies!

  • A club sandwich travels well for a picnic or a road trip. Just wrap each triangle in foil and it'll hold its shape for a good while. Enjoy!
  • You can swap the chicken for turkey or any other meat you like. Just keep in mind that the cooking time and calorie count will change accordingly.
  • Homemade mayonnaise is worth it — it tastes better and is better for you. For dressing, you don't have to stick to mayonnaise either; sour cream or plain yogurt works too. Use them on their own or mix them with mayonnaise in any ratio you like to cut down on calories.
