Asian Chicken Sandwhich

Chicken Sandwiches are my all time favorite when we go out to dinner. We rarely ever make them at home. But when you have 2 kids and one is only 3 1/2 months old, it's a little bit harder to go out. So I decided to make them at home for once. I found this recipe in my Taste of Home Chicken Cookbook. Now this recipe calls for marinating the chicken overnight...well I didn't read the directions until I decided I wanted to make them that night and only marinated them for about an hour and they turned out AWESOME!...Imagine what they would taste like marinated overnight!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup Orange Juice
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
2 hamburger huns, split
Lettuce leaves and tomato slices, optional

Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Set aside 1/4 cup for basting chicken; cover and refrigerate. Pound chicken breasts to 3/8-in. thickness. Place in a resealable plastic bag; pour remaining marinade over chicken. Seal bag and refrigerate overnight.

2. Discard marinade. Grill chicken, uncovered, over medium heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until chicken juices run clear, basting several times with reserved marinade. Serve on buns with lettuce and tomato if desired.
