Absolutely. You can grill the chicken up to 2 days in advance and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat it gently before assembling the sandwich.
The most common reason for aioli not thickening is adding the oil too quickly. You must add it drop by drop at the beginning to create a stable emulsion. A room temperature egg yolk also helps.
Feel free to get creative! Avocado, bacon, pickles, or a slice of provolone cheese are all delicious additions to this sandwich.
