I would like to know how to wire in a switch and outlet in my cabinet. Should I pigtail it after the GFCI? I would like to add a switch as well. Here is the wall, If I can utilize the outlet and add a switch here, wall access will be doable.

My original intent was to add a switched feed to a junction box under my cabinet for LED lights to plug into (more like direct wiring because this was their wires and not a normal plug in. I was told that is not allowed (direct wiring of lights into a kitchen SAC.) so my next idea is to wire in a switched outlet to be placed in the cabinet
