Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet. Rub with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until fully cooked and no longer pink inside. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
While the chicken is cooking, place the bacon slices in a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook until crispy, about 5 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Slice the tomato into even slices.
Once the chicken has cooled enough to handle, slice it into thin strips.
Toast the bread slices if desired.
Spread dairy-free mayonnaise on each slice of bread.
Assemble the sandwich by layering lettuce leaves on one slice of bread, followed by chicken slices, tomato slices, and bacon.
Top with another slice of bread to complete the sandwich.
Press gently to hold everything together, then slice in half. Serve immediately.
