Ingredients

Scale

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb total)
1 ripe avocado
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
4 slices whole wheat bread
2 tsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Allow to rest for 10 minutes.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for 6-8 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F). Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Mash avocado in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
In the same skillet, toast slices of bread over low heat. Spread mashed avocado on one side of each slice.
Layer sliced chicken and cheddar cheese on top of the avocado spread. Top with another slice of bread.
Cook sandwiches until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side, ensuring cheese melts.
Serve hot and enjoy!
