Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and grate the potatoes using a grater, then place the grated potatoes into a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a bowl, combine the grated potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
Spread the potato mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
While the potatoes are baking, prepare the protein batter: mix whey protein isolate with water in a shallow bowl until smooth and free of lumps.
Dredge the grilled chicken slices in the protein batter until fully coated.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the protein-coated chicken slices for 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked through and golden brown.
Toast the slices of whole wheat bread.
Mash the avocado with a fork in a small bowl, adding lemon juice for flavor and to prevent browning.
Assemble the sandwich: spread mashed avocado on two slices of toasted bread. Layer with crispy baked potatoes, grilled and protein-coated chicken, a slice of low-fat cheese, and baby spinach leaves.
Top with the remaining slices of bread to create sandwiches. Serve immediately and enjoy a high-protein, crispy potato delight!
