Servings 8 sandwiches

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
  • Juice from one lemon
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 8 thin cut chicken breasts
  • 8 slices thick cut bacon
  • 1 cup Sargento Extra Sharp Traditional Cut Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 8 potato buns
  • Romaine lettuce
  • Red onion thinly sliced

Instructions
 

  • Lay the bacon out on a sheet pan. (Make sure it has sides!)
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in a 375-degree oven.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the chicken to a plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken for a few hours. Grill the chicken on an indoor grill over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side. You could also do this in a skillet or outside on the grill.
  • Toast the buns. Add a slice of bacon to each chicken breast.
  • Top with cheddar cheese.
  • Broil until the cheese is melted.
  • You can wrap these up in foil and keep them warm. I send them to school with the kids, and this is their favorite lunch.
  • You can keep them warm in a 300-degree oven if you want to serve them to a crowd.
