Ingredients:

1.50 chicken breasts
180g
2 slices whole-wheat bread
54g
1 avocado
200g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken:
- Season the chicken breasts with a dash of salt and a dash of black pepper.
- Preheat your grill (or grill pan) to medium-high heat.
- Grill the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and set it aside to rest for a few minutes. Then, slice it thinly.
2. Prepare the Avocado:
- While the chicken is grilling, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
- Mash the avocado using a fork until it reaches your desired consistency. For a smoother texture, you can use a food processor.
- Season the mashed avocado with a little salt and pepper to taste.
3. Toast the Bread:
- Toast the slices of whole-wheat bread either in a toaster or on a dry skillet until they are golden brown and crispy.
4. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Spread a generous amount of mashed avocado on one slice of toasted whole-wheat bread.
- Layer the sliced, grilled chicken breast on top of the avocado spread.
- Place the second slice of toasted bread on top of the chicken to complete the sandwich.
5. Serve:
- Cut the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately.

Tips:

- Marinate the chicken: For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken breasts in olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and your favorite herbs for at least 30 minutes before grilling.

- Perfectly ripe avocado: Make sure your avocado is ripe for the best texture and flavor. It should yield slightly to gentle pressure when squeezed.

- Grill to perfection: Ensure your grill or grill pan is preheated to medium-high heat before adding the chicken. Grill each side for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

- Toast the bread: For an extra crunch, lightly toast the whole-wheat bread before assembling the sandwich.

- Assembly: To prevent the bread from getting soggy, layer the chicken on the bottom slice of bread and top with avocado slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste before adding the top slice of bread.

And there you have it—a simple yet mouthwatering grilled chicken and avocado sandwich! Whether you're preparing a quick lunch or a light dinner, this recipe is sure to become one of your go-to favorites. Enjoy the blend of savory grilled chicken and creamy avocado on a toasty whole-wheat bread, seasoned perfectly with a hint of salt and pepper.
