Preheat a grill pan or regular frying pan over medium heat.
Rub the chicken breast with olive oil, then season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder evenly on both sides.
Place the chicken breast in the heated pan and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
While the chicken is cooking, cut the avocado in half, remove the seed, and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth. Add lemon juice and mix well to incorporate.
Toast the low-carb bread slices until slightly golden and toasty. You can do this on a pan, toaster, or under a broiler.
Once the chicken has rested, slice it thinly.
Assemble the sandwich by spreading mashed avocado evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Place lettuce leaves on one slice of bread and top with sliced chicken.
Top the chicken with the second slice of bread, avocado side down, to form a sandwich.
Slice in half if desired and serve immediately.
