It's not just 20-somethings at brunch spreading avocado on toast that combine that rich vegetable and bread. (And that's not just millennials anymore, fellow olds, there are zoomers now, too!) This sandwich brings the avocado love, not to mention the juicy chicken and yummy cheese love. (Not to mention the salty, crunchy bacon love.) Feel free to make this for brunch and be young and hip. (Or have it for your 5pm dinner like all the rest of us olds.)

Pat chicken dry.

Unwrap chicken, and season both sides with a pinch of pepper.Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add chicken to hot pan and cook until browned and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 4-6 minutes per side.While chicken cooks, continue recipe. -
2 Make Bacon Aioli and Finish Chicken
Line a microwave-safe plate with a paper towel. Evenly spread bacon on towel-lined plate and microwave until crispy, 20-30 seconds.
If you receive prosciutto, place prosciutto on a microwave-safe plate and cover loosely with a dry paper towel. Microwave until crisp, 2-3 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, break up into small pieces.Transfer crisped bacon to a mixing bowl and add mayonnaise. Stir to combine.Once chicken is cooked, spread bacon aioli evenly on chicken and top with cheese. Remove from burner and cover. Let cheese melt, 2-3 minutes.Transfer chicken to a plate. Wipe pan clean and reserve.While cheese melts, continue recipe. -
3 Make Slaw and Toast Buns
In another mixing bowl, combine slaw, dressing, and a pinch of pepper. If desired, add a pinch of salt. Set aside.
Return pan used to cook chicken to medium heat. Add buns, cut-side down, to hot, dry pan. Toast undisturbed until browned, 1-2 minutes.Remove from burner. -
