Ingredients
Scale
Spread
- 1/2 cup real mayonnaise
- 2 Tbsp sour cream
- 2 tsp yellow mustard
Sandwich Filling
- 6 oz chicken breast from a rotisserie chicken (hand pulled)
- 4 strips cooked bacon
- 2 slices provolone cheese
- 2 large lettuce leaves
- 4-6 slices tomato
- 1/4 small red onion (thinly sliced)
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1 avocado (peeled, pitted, and sliced)
Bread
- Fresh focaccia bread (sliced)
Instructions
- Prepare the Spread: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, and yellow mustard until well combined. Set aside.
- Prepare the Chicken: Hand-pull 6 oz of chicken breast meat from a rotisserie chicken, shredding it into bite-sized pieces.
- Cook the Bacon: Cook 4 strips of bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels to remove excess fat.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Slice the fresh focaccia bread. Spread the prepared mayonnaise mixture evenly on both slices.
- Add Fillings: Layer the shredded chicken evenly on one slice. Top with crispy bacon strips, provolone cheese slices, large lettuce leaves, tomato slices, thinly sliced red onion, and sliced avocado.
- Season: Sprinkle salt and freshly ground black pepper over the fillings to taste.
- Close and Serve: Place the other slice of focaccia bread on top and gently press down. Cut the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use fresh focaccia bread for best texture and flavor. If unavailable, ciabatta or sourdough can be good substitutes.
- For extra creaminess, you can mash the avocado slightly before layering it onto the sandwich.
- Adjust the amount of tomato and onion slices based on your preference.
- To make the sandwich lighter, you can substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt.
