Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken:

• Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

• Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat.

• Cook the chicken breasts for about 6–7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden brown. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly.

2. Prepare the Avocado:

• While the chicken is cooking, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.

• Mash the avocado with a fork and mix in lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper for flavor.

3. Toast the Bread:

• Toast the slices of bread in a toaster or on a skillet until golden and crispy.

4. Assemble the Sandwich:

• Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt) on one side of each slice of bread.

• On one slice, spread a generous amount of mashed avocado.

• Layer the sliced chicken breast on top of the avocado.

• Add tomato slices, lettuce, cucumber, or red onions, if desired.

• Top with the second slice of bread.

5. Serve:

• Slice the sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy with a side of chips, pickles, or a salad.

🔄 Variations:

• Spicy version: Add jalapeño slices or drizzle hot sauce on the chicken for extra heat.

• Cheesy version: Add a slice of cheddar, swiss, or mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken.

• Grilled version: Instead of pan-frying the chicken, you can grill it for a smokier flavor.
