Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices of cheese (Swiss, cheddar, or provolone recommended)
Vegetables and Condiments:
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
Bread and Cooking Ingredients:
- 4 slices of bread (sourdough, ciabatta, or your choice)
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) olive oil
- Butter or olive oil for grilling
Instructions
- Carefully season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, ensuring even coverage for maximum flavor infusion.
- Warm olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, creating a perfect searing environment for the chicken.
- Cook chicken thoroughly for 6-7 minutes on each side, achieving a golden-brown exterior and ensuring internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Allow chicken to rest momentarily, then slice into thin, uniform strips for optimal sandwich distribution.
- Create a flavor base by spreading a delicate layer of mayonnaise and Dijon mustard across each bread slice, covering surface edge to edge.
- Construct sandwich layers strategically: place sliced chicken as the foundation, followed by creamy avocado slices, melty cheese, crisp red onion rings, and juicy tomato pieces.
- Complete the sandwich assembly by positioning the remaining bread slice on top, positioning mayo-coated side downward.
- Preheat skillet or grill pan to medium heat, adding a touch of butter or olive oil to ensure perfect golden crispiness.
- Carefully place sandwiches into the heated pan, gently pressing with a spatula to enhance even browning and cheese melting.
- Grill each side for 3-4 minutes until bread transforms into a crisp, golden-brown exterior and cheese becomes luxuriously melted.
- Remove from heat, slice diagonally, and serve immediately while warm and at peak deliciousness.
Notes
- Ensure chicken is fully cooked by checking internal temperature reaches 165°F to prevent foodborne illness.
- Slice avocado just before assembling to prevent browning and maintain fresh, vibrant color.
- Use a cast-iron skillet for extra crispy, golden-brown bread with perfect cheese melt.
- For gluten-free option, swap bread with gluten-free alternatives or use lettuce wraps for a low-carb version.
