  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  2. Prepare the remaining ingredients by slicing the avocado and cheese. Spread mayonnaise on one side and Dijon mustard on the other side of each slice of bread.
  3. Layer the sliced chicken, avocado, cheese, red onion rings, and tomato slices between the two slices of bread, mayo side down.
  4. In the skillet, add butter or olive oil. Grill the sandwich for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy, while the cheese melts.
  5. Remove the sandwich from the skillet, let it cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve warm.
