Is A Breast Or A Thigh Best For Your Grilled Chicken Sandwich?

There's an assumption that breast is best for a grilled chicken sandwich. However, chicken thighs deserve some appreciation for their delicious flavor and ease of preparation.
Thigh’s dark meat offers a savory experience compared to the milder flavor of chicken breasts. It’s a protein that stays front and center, and isn’t diminished by other flavors.
Chicken thighs are also more budget-friendly than breast meat and are nearly impossible to overcook, staying juicy and tender no matter what you do to them.
For your grilled chicken sandwich, opt for boneless, skinless chicken thighs, which are quicker and easier to prepare. Enhance their flavor with a rub or marinade.
