Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

1 ripe avocado, mashed

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

2 tablespoons Greek yogurt or mayonnaise

1 tablespoon lime juice

Salt and pepper to taste

4 slices of whole grain or sourdough bread

2 tablespoons butter, softened

Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mashed avocado, red onion, cheddar cheese, Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed.

    Assemble the Sandwich: Spread a generous amount of the chicken-avocado mixture on two slices of bread. Top with the remaining slices to form sandwiches.

      Butter the Bread: Spread softened butter on the outer sides of each sandwich to achieve a golden, crispy texture.

        Grill the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

          Serve: Once grilled, remove from the skillet and let cool for a minute. Cut the sandwiches in half, garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired, and serve warm.
