Preheat a grill pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray with olive oil cooking spray.
Season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper on both sides. Place the chicken breast in the pan and grill for about 7-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
While the chicken is cooking, cook the turkey bacon slices in a separate non-stick pan over medium heat until crispy, about 4-5 minutes on each side. Set aside on a paper towel to drain any excess fat.
Toast the whole wheat bread slices until golden brown.
Cut the tomato into thin slices and slice the avocado.
In a small bowl, mix the low-fat Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice to make a spread.
To assemble the sandwich, spread the yogurt mixture evenly over one side of each of the 4 slices of toasted bread.
On two of the slices, layer the lettuce, sliced tomatoes, sliced avocado, crispy turkey bacon, and grilled chicken slices.
Top with the remaining slices of bread, spread side down, and gently press to adhere everything together.
Slice each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately.
