How To Make An Italian Chicken BLTC

An Italian Chicken BLTC is a thing of beauty.  Grilled free-range chicken breast, on a crumbly Italian roll, topped with fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, tomato, lettuce, mayo, and  basil! If your friends and family don’t like this one, it’s time to get some new friends, lol.

In reality, this sandwich has been a personal favourite since the first time I tried it. It’s easy to make, fresh, crispy and above all…DELICIOUS!

I love this dish because it’s a twist on a classic Canadian sandwich that people already know and love. There is just no way that substituting prosciutto for bacon and fresh mozzarella for cheddar won’t turn a few heads and make you a few new fans when you make this dish.
