Notes

Slice your cooked chicken breast thinly for easier eating and better layering within the sandwich.
For extra flavour, toast the wholemeal bread lightly before frying for a deeper, nuttier taste.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking bacon; cook in batches if necessary to ensure it gets perfectly crispy.
