Method

For the Sandwich

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Heat olive oil on a grill pan over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Make Pesto Mayo

    In a small bowl, mix together the pesto and mayonnaise until well combined.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread the pesto mayo on the inside of both bread rolls. Layer the lettuce leaves, grilled chicken, sliced tomato, and sliced avocado inside the rolls. Close the rolls and set aside.

For the Fries

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and cut the potatoes into thin strips for fries.

  2. 6

    Season the Fries

    Toss the cut potatoes in a bowl with olive oil and salt until evenly coated.

  3. 7

    Bake the Fries

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the fries on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
