Classic Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich

—

### 🔥 How to Make It:

#### 1. **Cook the Chicken**
Grill or pan-sear the chicken breasts with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper until fully cooked and golden on the outside. Slice the chicken into thin strips or cutlets for easy sandwich stacking.

> *Shortcut: Use pre-cooked grilled chicken or rotisserie chicken if you’re short on time!*

#### 2. **Crisp the Bacon**
While the chicken is cooking, fry the bacon in a pan or bake it in the oven until crispy. Drain on a paper towel to remove excess grease.

#### 3. **Toast the Bread (Optional but Recommended!)**
Lightly butter and toast the sandwich rolls on a skillet or under the broiler. This gives the sandwich structure and a little extra crunch.

#### 4. **Assemble the Sandwich**
Layer your sandwich in this tasty order:
– Spread **ranch dressing** on both sides of the bread.
– Add a layer of **lettuce and tomato slices**.
– Place the **chicken strips** evenly.
– Top with **crispy bacon**.
– Add **cheese slices**, letting them melt slightly on warm chicken or broil for 1 minute to get it extra gooey.

#### 5. **Serve It Up!**
Cut the sandwich in half and serve with a side of fries, chips, or a crisp salad. Don’t forget extra ranch for dipping!
