1
Marinate the Chicken
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk together until well mixed. Coat the chicken breast with the marinade and let it sit for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
2
Grill the Chicken
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Once ready, place the marinated chicken breast on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

3
Prepare the Avocado
While the chicken is grilling, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add the chopped cilantro, a pinch of salt, and lime juice. Mash the avocado with a fork until it reaches your desired consistency, either smooth or chunky.

4
Toast the Bread
Toast the whole wheat sandwich bread slices until golden brown.
5
Build the Sandwich
On one slice of toasted bread, spread a generous amount of the smashed avocado. Top with sliced grilled chicken. Place the second slice of bread on top to complete the sandwich.
