Start by pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness so that they cook evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the chicken breasts with the spice mixture, ensuring they are coated well on all sides.
Preheat your grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat.
Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.
While the chicken is resting, mash the avocado in a small bowl and mix with lemon juice to make a quick guacamole.
Spread the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard evenly over each low-carb flatbread or tortilla.
Layer two large lettuce leaves on each flatbread, followed by slices of tomato and red onion.
Add the sliced grilled chicken on top, and then spread the avocado mixture over the chicken.
Roll up each flatbread tightly to form a sub-style sandwich and secure with toothpicks if necessary.
Slice the sandwiches in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your flavorful, low-carb meal!
