PREP TIME

5 minutes

COOKING TIME

0 minutes (assuming pre-cooked chicken)

TIPS

  • Use Fresh And Ripe Avocado: A perfectly ripe avocado will mash easily and provide the best texture and flavour.
  • Toast The Bread For Extra Crunch: Lightly toasting the whole wheat bread adds a pleasant contrast to the creamy Avocado and tender chicken.
  • Grill The Chicken In Advance: Pre-cook the chicken and store it in the fridge to make this sandwich in just minutes.
  • Enhance The Flavour: Add a pinch of chilli flakes or garlic powder for extra depth.
  • Keep Avocado Fresh: If making ahead, store the mashed Avocado with a bit of extra lemon juice to prevent browning.
  • Make It Heartier: Add a second slice of bread to turn this into a classic sandwich.

VARIATIONS

  • Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free bread instead of whole wheat.
  • Dairy-Free Enhancement: Add a slice of dairy-free cheese for extra flavour without lactose.
  • Higher Fibre Version: Swap whole wheat bread for sprouted grain bread for additional fibre.
  • Spicy Kick: Spread a thin layer of sriracha or add sliced jalapeños for heat.
  • Extra Protein Boost: Add a fried or poached egg on top of the grilled chicken for more protein.
  • Mediterranean Twist: Sprinkle some feta cheese and chopped sun-dried tomatoes over the chicken.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store the grilled chicken separately in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Avocado Storage: To prevent browning, store the mashed Avocado in a small container with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface.
  • Assembled Sandwich: Best eaten immediately, but if needed, stored in an airtight container for up to 4 hours. Keep Avocado separate and spread before eating.
  • Meal Prep: Pre-slice the grilled chicken and portion out the Avocado to assemble quickly when needed.
