The Best Sandwich

My friend and I had a little tradition going: two years in a row, we made a High Tea for Towel Day, thinking both Tea and Douglas Adams the Penultimate of Britishness. For our first get-together, I made this sandwich and it's been on my menu ever since, even though I suspect it's actually more typically American. People seem impressed - but it's simple food to cook.

Ingredients
1 avocado
Leftover roast chicken meat (dark and white, about 1 chicken breast's worth; or 1 cooked chicken breast)
100 grams thick smoked bacon
Mayonnaise
Freshly ground pepper
Good bread (I like this on multi-grain bread or bread with sesame seeds)

Fry the bacon until crispy (you don't need oil, the fat from the bacon is enough). Transfer to a plate, but leave the pan on the hob to warm your chicken meat in (and coat it in the delicious bacon juices!). Halve the avocado and thinly slice it avocado. Spread the mayonnaise on the bread. Put on a layer of avocado, bacon, and the chicken. Ground some pepper over this. Enjoy!
