Ingredients

Scale

  2. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise with lime juice to create a zesty sauce.
  3. Let the cooked chicken rest before slicing it thinly against the grain. Slice the avocado and set aside.
  4. Spread the mayo-lime mixture on two slices of sourdough bread. Layer with sliced chicken, avocado, cheddar cheese, and chopped cilantro. Top with remaining bread slices.
  5. Grill assembled sandwiches in the same skillet over medium heat, about 3 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese melts.
