Ingredients
  

Chicken
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 ripe avocado, mashed
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 slices whole grain bread
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Skillet

Method
 

  1. Prepare the chicken by shredding it into bite-sized pieces. If using raw chicken, boil or grill until fully cooked, then shred.
  2. In a medium bowl, mash the ripe avocado with a fork until smooth. Add Greek yogurt, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Take two slices of whole grain bread and spread a generous amount of the chicken and avocado mixture on each slice. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cheese is melted.
  5. Remove sandwiches from the skillet, let cool for a minute, cut in half, and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
