Preparation Steps
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from grill and let rest.
Roast the Tomato
Slice the large tomato and place it on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes until softened.
Make the Pesto Mayo
In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise and pesto until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Assemble the Sandwich
Slice the potato buns in half. Spread a generous amount of the pesto mayo on both halves. Place the grilled chicken on the bottom half, followed by the roasted tomato slices, mozzarella cheese, and arugula. Drizzle with balsamic vinaigrette. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve
Serve the grilled chicken Caprese sandwich immediately while warm.
