How to Make Chicken Avocado Sandwich

  • Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of waxed paper. Use a meat mallet to pound the breasts to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. Remove any excess fat. Slice the chicken into 4 sandwich-sized pieces to fit the buns. 
  • In a shallow bowl, stir together the olive oil, lime juice, and chipotle chili powder to make the marinade.

  • Grill the chicken for a couple of minutes on each side until fully cooked through.
  • Place a slice of cheese on each cooked chicken breast and cover the grill for about 30 seconds to melt the cheese.
  • Place each chicken breast on the bottom buns and top with the avocado, lettuce, mayo, and your favorite toppings. Serve and enjoy!

Is A Chicken Avocado Sandwich Healthy?

You’ll get a good dose of protein from the chicken breast and avocado is a nutritional powerhouse that’s high in fiber, monounsaturated fat, folate, and potassium. Choose whole grain buns for more fiber.  

Is Avocado Good For Losing Weight?

Yes, avocado is known to promote both metabolic health and weight loss. Because avocados contain a lot of fiber, they help to reduce the appetite. Avocados also increase metabolism and reduce levels of bad cholesterol. Note that avocados are high in calories, so it’s best to enjoy them in moderation.
