1
Prep the Chicken
Preheat the grill over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
2
Grill the Chicken
Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
3
Prepare the Sandwich
Once the chicken is grilled, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice the red onion thinly.
4
Assemble the Sandwich
Slice the ciabatta bread in half. Spread a generous amount of basil pine nut pesto on both halves. Layer with grilled chicken, mozzarella slices, and red onion.
5
Grill the Sandwich
Close the sandwich and place it back on the grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.
6
Serve
Remove from the grill, cut in half, and serve warm.
