The sandwich expert who taught me always insisted, "How you put it together makes all the difference." Years of sandwich-making have proved this advice spot on every single time.

Perfect Pairings

This tastes great with crunchy chips, some fresh fruit on the side, or a simple green salad. Want to make it extra special? Add a small bowl of creamy tomato soup to dip your sandwich in.

Mix It Up Options

Switch things around by trying different cheeses, throwing in some crispy bacon, or adding fresh herbs. Looking for something lighter? Try making it open-faced on some hearty whole grain bread.

Keeping It Fresh

This tastes best right after making it, but you can get things ready ahead of time and put it all together just before cooking. Keep your cooked chicken separate until you're ready to use it. After trying countless versions in my kitchen, I've found that this sandwich hits the sweet spot of flavors and techniques. When you pay attention to each ingredient, what you get isn't just lunch—it's a standout meal you'll want to make again and again.

Recipe Questions & Answers

→ What bread holds up best?

Go for ciabatta or sourdough—they're sturdy and toast perfectly. Any thick bread that'll stay crisp works too.

→ Can I use pre-cooked chicken?

Totally fine! Use grilled or roasted leftovers, and just warm them a bit before adding.

→ How to check if the avocado is ripe?

Give it a gentle squeeze. It should feel soft, but not squishy. Skip hard or overly soft ones.

→ Is it possible to prep early?

You can cook the chicken in advance, but cut the avocado last minute to keep it fresh and green.

→ Why does it turn soggy?

To avoid this, dry your tomato slices and don’t stack too much filling. Toast the bread well to stop moisture from soaking in.
