Ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 sandwich buns
- Lettuce leaves
- Sliced tomatoes
- Sliced red onions

Instructions:
- Prepare the Marinade:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Marinate the Chicken:
- Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

- Toast the Buns:
- While the chicken is resting, lightly toast the sandwich buns on the grill or in a toaster.
- Assemble the Sandwiches:
- Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add slices of chicken, followed by sliced tomatoes and red onions. Add any optional toppings, such as cheese or pickles.
- Serve:
