Chef's Note
For the best flavor, use avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure but aren't too soft. If preparing ahead, brush the mashed avocado with additional lemon juice to prevent browning. For a time-saving tip, cook the chicken breast and hard-boil the eggs the night before, then simply reheat before assembling.
