Description
A light and refreshing sandwich perfect for summer, featuring marinated chicken breast, fresh veggies, and creamy avocado.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Fresh herbs (basil, parsley, or cilantro)
- 2 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, romaine)
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 2 slices whole-grain bread
- 1 avocado, mashed
- ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and your choice of fresh herbs. Add the chicken breasts and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high (about 375°F).
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or bake for approximately 25 minutes until juices run clear.
- Slice the whole-grain bread and spread mashed avocado on one slice. Add sliced tomatoes and mixed greens. Once the chicken is cooked, slice it and layer it on the sandwich along with crumbled feta cheese.
- Cut the sandwich in half and serve with fresh fruit or a light salad.
Notes
For a low-carb option, consider using zucchini noodles instead of bread. Customize by adding roasted peppers or grilled veggies.
