A note about serious food allergies

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 at 5 pm dinner like all the rest of us olds.)

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |

  1. 1

    Prepare and Start the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry.

    Wrap chicken in plastic wrap and lightly pound with a heavy object to an even 1/2" thickness. 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, prepare bacon aioli.

  2. 2

    Make Bacon Aioli and Finish Chicken

    Line a microwave-safe plate with a paper towel. Place bacon on towel-lined plate and microwave until crispy, 20-30 seconds.

    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 pan from burner and cover. Let cheese melt, 2-3 minutes.

    Transfer chicken to a plate. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

    While cheese melts, make slaw.

  3. 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. Cook undisturbed until toasted, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.
