Creating your Chicken Avocado Melt Sandwich is straightforward. Follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Bread: Preheat a skillet over medium heat. If you’re using butter, spread it on the outside of your bread slices to encourage browning.
2. Mash the Avocado: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado with a fork. Season it with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Mix the Chicken: In another bowl, mix the shredded chicken with a pinch of salt and pepper. For extra flavor, consider adding garlic powder or hot sauce if desired.
4. Assemble the Sandwich: Spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on one slice of bread. Evenly distribute the seasoned chicken on top of the avocado.
5. Add Cheese: Sprinkle your choice of cheese over the chicken layer for that melty goodness.
6. Top It Off: Place the second slice of bread on top to form a sandwich.
7. Cook the Sandwich: Place the sandwich in the preheated skillet and cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
8. Flip and Melt: Carefully flip the sandwich and press down slightly with a spatula. Cook the other side until golden and the cheese has melted, about another 3-4 minutes.
9. Serve: Once both sides are perfectly browned and the cheese is gooey, remove the sandwich from the skillet. Let it cool for a minute, then slice it in half.
