Prepare the Chicken

Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and a hint of garlic powder.

Grill or pan-sear over medium heat until fully cooked, then slice into strips for easy assembly.

Cook the Bacon

In a skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Drain excess grease on paper towels.

Toast the Bread

Lightly butter the bread slices and toast them in a pan or oven until golden and crisp.

Assemble the Layers

Start with a generous spread of ranch dressing on the toasted bread.

Layer with lettuce, tomato slices, and the sliced chicken.

Add crispy bacon and top with your choice of cheese.

Melt the Cheese

Place the assembled sandwich in a skillet over low heat or under a broiler to melt the cheese slightly.

Serve and Enjoy

Cut the sandwich in half for easier handling and serve with a side of fries or a chicken bacon ranch salad for a complete meal.

For a handheld option, wrap the ingredients in a tortilla to create a chicken bacon ranch wrap.

Swap out the bread for a panini press to make a decadent chicken bacon ranch panini.

Experiment with flavors by using spicy ranch or adding a hint of barbecue sauce.
