Pesto Chicken Sandwich Recipe

Chicken

Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Drizzle with olive oil and spread over chicken.

Sprinkle chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and thyme.

Cook over a preheated grill for 3-4 minutes per side. Add the mozzarella and cook for 2-3 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked through (165°F) and the cheese is slightly melted. Remove from grill and set aside.

Sandwich

Drizzle the inside of the ciabatta rolls with olive oil. Place rolls with the oil side down on a hot grill and cook just until toasted. Flip and warm the other side of the roll.

Spread a generous amount of pesto on the top half of the bun.

Assemble the sandwich by placing the chicken breast on the bottom bun, then the tomatoes, and topping with the arugula.

Serve right away.
