Description
This delicious sandwich features tender chicken, creamy avocado, and melted cheese for a perfect lunch or dinner.
Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 ripe avocado
- 4 slices of your favorite cheese (mozzarella or cheddar)
- 4 slices of bread (sourdough or whole grain)
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked.
- Slice the avocado and set it aside.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing.
- In the same skillet, place two slices of bread and top them with cheese, followed by sliced chicken and avocado. Add more cheese on top and cover with the other slices of bread.
- Grill each sandwich until the bread is golden brown and the cheese melts, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Notes
Serve warm off the skillet, pairing with a side salad or sweet potato fries. A spicy aioli or homemade salsa works great as a dip.
