Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides evenly with dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the chicken is cooking, combine the mixed greens, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion in a large bowl.
Whisk the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil with the lemon juice in a small jar to create a light vinaigrette.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and arrange them over the salad along with the fresh avocado slices.
Drizzle the lemon vinaigrette over the top and serve immediately while the chicken is still warm.
