- 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 + 1/8 tsp chipotle chili powder, divided
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 medium chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup light Mayo
- 3 tsp lime juice

Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, 1/8 tsp chipotle chili powder, smoked paprika and salt.
- Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, flatten chicken until it's about 1/4-inch thick. Cut each breast in half so you have 8 pieces. Season both sides of chicken with seasoning.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill to a medium heat. Cook chicken about 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through. If using a cast-iron skillet, you may need to work in batches.
- While chicken is cooking, add mayo, lime juice, and remaining chipotle chili powder together in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Once the chicken is cooked, top each breast with a piece of gouda. Add a couple teaspoons of water to the skillet and cover for 10-15 seconds until cheese has melted.
- Slather both sides of bun with mayo. Top with two pieces of chicken, followed by a slice of tomato and half of an avocado. Season avocado with salt and pepper. If using, top with onion straws.
