Description
Juicy chicken, creamy avocado, melty cheese, and golden toasted bread come together for the perfect quick meal. Ideal for busy days or when you’re craving something cheesy, comforting, and delicious.
Ingredients
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 4 slices of 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
1. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken for about 6–7 minutes per side, until cooked through. Rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly.
2. Slice avocado and have cheese ready.
3. Spread mayonnaise and Dijon mustard on one side of each bread slice.
4. On two slices of bread, layer sliced chicken, avocado, cheese, red onion, and tomato. Top with remaining bread slices, mayo side down.
5. Heat butter or olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Grill sandwiches 3–4 minutes per side, pressing gently, until bread is golden and cheese melted.
6. Remove, slice in half, and serve warm.
Notes
Swap in turkey or rotisserie chicken for a quick shortcut.
For extra flavor, sprinkle crushed red pepper or your favorite seasoning into the sandwich layers.
Sourdough adds great crunch, but any sturdy bread works well.
Let the chicken rest before slicing so it stays juicy.
