Grilled Chicken Subs

Yield: 4

Ingredients

• 1 lemon, juiced
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 4 split bone-in chicken breasts or skinless boneless breast halves
• 1 French baguette
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• Lemon juice
• Shredded lettuce

Instructions

1. In a bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, salt, pepper, mustard and garlic.
2. Whisk in the oil a little at a time until the dressing emulsifies.
3. Place the chicken breasts in a large bowl or baking dish.
4. Pour the marinade over them and turn them in the dressing.
5. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
6. Heat a charcoal or gas grill.
7. When the grill is medium-hot, place the rack over the coals.
8. Set the bone-in breasts skin side down on the rack. Cover and grill them for 10 minutes; do not move the chicken until it releases easily from the rack when you nudge it with tongs. Turn the chicken, cover the grill, and continue to cook for 8 minutes or until the meat is cooked through.
9. If using boneless chicken, place the breasts on the rack skinned side down. Cover and grill them for 5 minutes. Turn the chicken, recover the grill, and cook for 5 minutes more or until the meat is cooked through.
10. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it cool.
11. Slice the meat.
12. Cut a French baguette lengthwise, then crosswise into 4 pieces.
13. Toast the bread lightly.
14. Stir the chopped parsley into the mayonnaise and add a squeeze of lemon juice.
15. Spread the bread with the parsley mayonnaise mixture, fill it with shredded lettuce and sliced chicken, and serve at once.
