What you'll need

Cast iron skillet — Sears better than any non-stick; naturally non-stick once seasoned.
Enameled Dutch oven — For braises, roasts, and one-pot mains.
Instant-read thermometer — The only reliable way to nail doneness without guessing.

Instructions

Season the chicken breasts thoroughly with salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
Heat a skillet over medium heat with 1 tbsp avocado oil; sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from heat, let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice into strips.
Mash the organic avocado in a small bowl with lemon juice and sea salt using a fork until chunky-smooth.
Fold the avocado mash with 1 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise to create a creamy spread.
Lightly toast the bread slices in a dry skillet or under the broiler for 1 minute per side.
Layer baby spinach, sliced chicken, and the avocado mixture onto the toasted bread.
Close the sandwiches and serve immediately.

FAQ

Why use organic avocado oil mayonnaise?

Avocado oil is extracted from avocados and contains antioxidants and monounsaturated fats. Organic ensures no pesticides or synthetic substances are used in the production process.

Can I use a different type of mayonnaise if I don't have the avocado oil version?

While you can use other organic, whole-food based mayonnaises, avocado oil mayonnaise aligns best with the clean-eating principles of this recipe due to its natural fat content and minimal processing.
