Whether you’re grilling for lunch or prepping for light summer dinners, this Smoked Tea Chicken recipe has you covered. Made with juicy grilled chicken breasts seasoned with a smoky tea rub and paired with a tangy-sweet Bourbon Maple Hops mayo, you can serve this two delicious ways: as a hearty sandwich or a crunchy chicken salad.

The chicken gets a rich, smoky flavor thanks to the tea-based rub, while the dressing brings in a unique twist with a splash of pickle juice and the sweetness of maple and hops. Add crisp celery, carrots, or even grapes for extra crunch — or pile it onto toasted buns with fresh tomato and lettuce for the ultimate grilled sandwich.
