How to Make Avocado Chicken Melt

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a large plastic food storage bag, combine panko bread crumbs, garlic salt, and paprika.
3. Add chicken breasts to the bag; seal and shake to coat evenly.
4. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Add chicken to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned.
6. Transfer chicken to a shallow baking pan.
7. Top each chicken breast with avocado slices, shredded cheese, and a sprinkle of green onions.
8. Bake for 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly, and chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F).
9. While chicken is baking, prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt and diced red bell pepper. Stir in a tablespoon of sliced green onion tops, if desired.
10. Spread yogurt sauce evenly over toasted bread slices.
11. Place each cooked chicken breast on a slice of toast and serve immediately. Garnish with extra green onions and cucumber slices, if desired.
