Pesto Mayo

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pesto Mayo

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and pesto until well combined. Set aside for later.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C). Remove from grill and let rest.

  3. 3

    Grill the Zucchini

    Slice the zucchini into 1/4 inch thick rounds. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the zucchini for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the zucchini is tender.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the ciabatta rolls in half. Spread a generous amount of pesto mayo on both halves. Layer the grilled chicken on the bottom half, followed by slices of grilled zucchini, roasted red peppers, cheddar cheese, and a handful of arugula. Top with the other half of the ciabatta roll.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Optionally, you can grill the assembled sandwich briefly to melt the cheese and toast the bread. Cut in half and serve immediately.
