Ingredients

2 boneless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon chipotle seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
1 ripe avocado sliced
2 slices of your favorite bread sourdough or whole wheat
2 slices of melted cheese cheddar or mozzarella
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sour cream optional
1 teaspoon lime juice
Fresh cilantro optional

Equipment

Skillet or frying pan
Knife
Cutting board
Small bowl
Spatula
Toaster or grill (optional)

Method

Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with chipotle seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side until golden and fully cooked. Remove and let it rest before slicing.
Prepare the Spread: Mix mayonnaise, sour cream (optional), and lime juice in a small bowl.
Toast the Bread: Butter the bread slices and toast them until golden brown in a skillet or toaster.
Assemble the Sandwich: Spread the creamy sauce on each slice of bread. Layer with sliced chicken, avocado, and melted cheese. Optionally, add fresh cilantro.
Grill the Sandwich: Grill the sandwich in the skillet over medium heat until crispy and golden, and the cheese is melted, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Serve: Cut in half, serve warm, and enjoy!

Notes

You can customize the heat level by adjusting the amount of chipotle seasoning.
For an extra kick, add some jalapeños or hot sauce.
If you prefer, use any cheese you like, such as pepper jack for more spice.
The sour cream in the spread is optional but adds a nice creaminess.
