Steps:
- For the garlic spread, place mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk to thoroughly combine. Slowly add the the olive oil, whisking until incorporated.
- For the sandwich, remove a small amount of the inside of ciabatta loaf, creating a hollow in the center of the loaf to make room for the filling. Slice the ciabatta loaf, on an angle, into 3-4 sandwich-sized pieces. Slice each piece in half, lengthwise. Brush a small amount of olive oil onto the outside of each piece of bread, so that both the top and bottom halves of each sandwich have oil on the outside of the bread. Slather some garlic spread onto the inside of the bottom half of each sandwich, reserving any leftover spread for a later use. Onto the bottom half of each sandwich, place 2-3 slices of mozzarella cheese, 2-3 slices of tomato, 3-4 slices of avocado, and about 2 tablespoons of feta cheese. Firmly place the top piece of bread onto each sandwich.
- Brush a grill pan or griddle with a small amount of olive oil, and place over medium-high heat. Place the sandwiches onto the hot pan. Place a heavy pan on top of the sandwiches to weigh them down, careful not to squeeze the filling out of the sandwiches. After 3-4 minutes, use a spatula or tongs to carefully flip the sandwiches, and another 3-4 minutes, until cheese is completely melted.
- Cool for a few minutes and serve.

Tips:
- Use ripe avocados: Ripe avocados are creamier and have a better flavor. To check if an avocado is ripe, gently squeeze it. It should give slightly to the touch.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, basil, and parsley, add a lot of flavor to this sandwich. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but reduce the amount you use by half.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so it's important to cook them over medium heat and not overcook them. You can check if the chicken is cooked through by piercing it with a fork. If the juices run clear, the chicken is cooked.
- Use a good quality bread: The bread is an important part of this sandwich, so use a good quality bread that you enjoy. A sturdy bread, such as sourdough or whole wheat, will hold up well to the other ingredients.
- Be generous with the avocado: Don't be shy with the avocado! The avocado is the star of this sandwich, so make sure to use a generous amount.
