Description
A delicious and satisfying sandwich combining juicy chicken, creamy avocado, and melty cheese between toasted bread.
Ingredients
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 4 slices cheese (Swiss, cheddar, or provolone)
- 4 slices bread (sourdough, ciabatta, or your choice)
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- Butter or olive oil for grilling
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium‑high heat. Cook the chicken breasts about 6–7 minutes per side until fully cooked and no longer pink; remove and let rest before slicing thinly.
- Slice the avocado and prepare the cheese slices; set aside.
- Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise and Dijon mustard on each slice of bread.
- On two bread slices, layer sliced chicken, avocado, and cheese, then add red onion and tomato. Top with remaining bread slices, mayo side down.
- Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat with butter or olive oil. Grill the sandwiches about 3–4 minutes per side until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted, pressing gently with a spatula.
- Remove from pan, let cool briefly, slice in half, and serve warm.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate.
- Reheat in a toaster oven or regular oven to keep the bread crispy—avoid microwaving.
