Method

Sandwich Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinade the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix the olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken thighs and coat them well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken thighs 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 for a few minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of pesto mayo on the bottom half of each brioche bun. Place the grilled chicken on top, followed by lettuce and tomato slices. Top with the other half of the bun.

Pesto Mayo Preparation

  1. 4

    Mix the Pesto Mayo

    In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and pesto sauce. Stir well until fully blended.

Fries Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to make fries.

  2. 6

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 7

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the potato strips to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
