Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Sandwich Fillings

  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 4 slices of cheese (Swiss, cheddar, or provolone)
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tomato, sliced

Bread and Spreads

  • 4 slices of bread (sourdough, ciabatta, or your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

For Grilling

  • Butter or olive oil for grilling

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6–7 minutes per side until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing thinly.
  2. Prepare the vegetables and cheese: Slice the avocado, red onion, and tomato. Set aside the cheese slices for layering.
  3. Toast the bread with spreads: Spread mayonnaise and Dijon mustard evenly on each slice of bread to impart tangy flavor to the sandwich.
  4. Assemble the sandwiches: On two slices of bread, layer the sliced chicken, avocado, cheese, red onion, and tomato. Place the remaining bread slices on top, mayo side down, to complete the sandwich.
  5. Grill the sandwiches: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add butter or olive oil and cook the sandwiches for 3–4 minutes per side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted. Press gently with a spatula while grilling to help the sandwich bind together.
  6. Serve: Remove sandwiches from the heat, let them cool for one minute, slice each sandwich in half, and serve warm for best taste.

Notes

  • Use your favorite type of cheese for varying flavor profiles.
  • For extra crunch, consider adding lettuce or crispy bacon.
  • Adjust seasoning on chicken according to preference.
  • Avocado can be mashed and spread for a creamier texture.
  • Use whole grain or gluten-free bread to suit dietary needs.
