Instructions

Make the garlic aioli by mixing all the ingredients in a small bowl until well combined. Cover and set aside.
Dry the chicken using paper towels. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. In a small bowl, combine the seasonings and rub them onto the chicken breasts coated with high-heat oil.
Grill the chicken for 4-7 minutes per side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Let it rest before assembling the sandwiches.
Slice the brioche buns and toast them lightly on the grill while the chicken rests.
Spread garlic aioli on the bottom half of each toasted bun and place the grilled chicken breasts on top.
Layer avocado slices, tomato slices, lettuce leaves, and two slices of crispy bacon on each sandwich. Add pickles if desired.
Drizzle hot honey over the sandwiches to enhance the flavor, adjusting based on your spice preference.
Top each sandwich with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.

Notes

For an extra kick, consider adding some hot sauce to the garlic aioli.
Feel free to customize toppings according to your taste, such as adding cheese or different vegetables.
These sandwiches make a perfect meal for gatherings, served with chips or a salad.
