In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the spice mixture onto both sides of the chicken breasts.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Cook the chicken breasts for 6-8 minutes per side or until they are golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C). Set the cooked chicken aside to rest for 5 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the avocado spread by mashing the avocado in a bowl with lime juice until smooth. Set aside.
Slice the tomato and red onion into thin rounds for layering.
Butter the insides of the ciabatta rolls lightly and toast them on a dry skillet or in a toaster oven until golden brown.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread 1 tablespoon of chipotle mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted roll.
Add a layer of fresh lettuce, followed by sliced chicken, tomato, red onion, and a generous dollop of the avocado spread.
Top with the remaining half of the ciabatta roll. Serve immediately and enjoy your Southwestern Savory Sandwich!
