Ingredients

• 1 piece (about 6 ounces) Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 4 slices Whole-grain bread slices
• 1 medium Avocado
• 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
• 1 medium, sliced Tomatoes
• 0.5 medium, sliced Cucumber
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Sodium-free seasoning blend

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the chicken breast. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the chicken breast in half horizontally to create two thin pieces.

Step 2

Season both sides of the chicken pieces with the sodium-free seasoning blend, freshly ground black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 3

In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken pieces and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 4

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the avocado spread. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork until smooth, then stir in the fresh lemon juice.

Step 5

Lightly toast the whole-grain bread slices in a toaster or on a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and crisp.

Step 6

To assemble the sandwich, spread a thin layer of unsalted mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice.

Step 7

On two slices of the toasted bread, spread the mashed avocado evenly.

Step 8

Place 2 lettuce leaves on each slice with avocado. Then, layer the cooked chicken breast pieces on top of the lettuce.

Step 9

Top the chicken with slices of tomato and cucumber.

Step 10

Finish by placing the remaining two slices of toasted bread on top, mayonnaise side down, to complete the sandwich.

Step 11

Cut each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately.
