Chicken Avocado Sandwich
This Chicken Avocado Sandwich is super delicious and is excellent for lunch any day of the week. When paired with sourdough bread, this sandwich is perfection!
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons taco seasoning
- 1 pound chicken breast, boneless, skinless
- 8 slices sourdough bread
- 1 avocado
- 1 lime
- ½ red onion sliced
- 1 tomato sliced
Instructions
- First, place the chicken breast into a large plastic bag. Then add the olive oil and taco seasoning. Seal the bag with the closure and coat the chicken evenly with the seasoning and olive oil by shaking or squeezing the bag. Marinade the chicken for at least 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit while the chicken is marinating.
- Place the marinated chicken onto a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes at 425 degrees.
- While the chicken is cooking, mash the avocado in a small bowl and squeeze lime juice. Then toast the sourdough bread.
- Once the chicken is ready, remove it from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. Then, assemble the sandwiches. Spread the avocado mash onto the bread, then add the chicken and top with sliced red onion and tomato.

Tips
- For even more flavor, you can add regular mayonnaise, flavored mayo, or aioli as a sandwich spread on one slice and avocado mash on the other slice. I love using chipotle mayo for extra zing!
- You can prepare and cook the chicken in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days. Then rewarm the chicken or eat cold if you prefer. Wait to prepare the avocado mash until you plan to eat the sandwich so that it doesn't turn brown.
