Chicken Avocado Melt Sandwich

A simple, warm, and filling sandwich made with cooked chicken, creamy avocado, melty cheese, and a bit of mayo and mustard.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 4 slices of your favorite cheese (Swiss, cheddar, or provolone)
  • 4 slices of bread (sourdough, ciabatta, or your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • Butter or olive oil for grilling the sandwiches

Instructions

  1. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for about 6–7 minutes per side, until cooked through. Remove and let rest a few minutes, then slice thinly.
  2. Slice avocado and have cheese ready.
  3. Spread mayonnaise and Dijon mustard on one side of each bread slice.
  4. On two slices of bread, layer sliced chicken, avocado, cheese, red onion, and tomato. Top with the remaining bread slices, mayo side down.
  5. Heat butter or olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook sandwiches for 3–4 minutes per side until bread is golden and cheese is melted.
  6. Let cool slightly, slice in half, and serve warm.

Notes

For best texture, store chicken and avocado separately from bread if keeping for longer than a few hours.
