Total time: 25 min
Yield: Serves 2
Ingredients: 6 slices of white or whole wheat bread; 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each); 4 slices of crispy bacon; 2 large lettuce leaves, washed and dried; 1 large ripe tomato, sliced; 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced; 2 tablespoons mayonnaise; 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard; 1 teaspoon olive oil; Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste; 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder; 4 slices of Swiss or cheddar cheese (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the chicken

Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken breasts for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Cook the bacon

In the same skillet or a separate one, cook bacon strips until crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess grease.
Make the spread

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Mix well to create a smooth, creamy spread.
Toast the bread

Lightly toast all bread slices until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before assembling.
Assemble the sandwich

Spread the mayonnaise-mustard mixture on one side of each bread slice. On the first slice, layer lettuce, sliced tomato, and sliced chicken breast. Top with the second slice of bread. On top of the second slice, add cheese (if using), avocado slices, and bacon. Cover with the third slice of bread, spread side down.
Cut and serve

Secure each sandwich with toothpicks and slice diagonally into triangles or straight across into rectangles. Serve immediately with potato chips, french fries, or a side salad.
