Description
An elevated classic, this Loaded Chicken Club Sandwich features grilled chicken, crispy bacon, creamy avocado ranch, and fresh veggies layered between perfectly toasted bread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices of bread (your choice: whole grain, sourdough, or ciabatta)
- 1 grilled chicken breast (marinated or seasoned)
- 2 slices of crispy bacon (or turkey bacon for a lighter option)
- Lettuce leaves (crunchy romaine or butter lettuce)
- 2 slices of tomato (ripe summer tomatoes or any variety)
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing (store-bought or homemade)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocado Ranch Spread: In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe avocado until smooth. Blend in the ranch dressing, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Grill the Chicken Breast: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Season your chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill until cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side, until juices run clear.
- Toast the Bread: Toast your bread slices until golden brown, locking in crunchiness.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Spread a layer of avocado ranch on one slice of bread, then layer the grilled chicken, bacon, lettuce, and tomato.
- Top it Off: Place the second slice of bread atop the layers and press down gently.
- Slice and Serve: Cut the sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately.
Notes
Make the avocado ranch spread in advance; it keeps in the fridge for up to two days. Avoid overcooking the chicken to keep it juicy.
