🌿🐔🍅 Layers of herby pesto, succulent chicken, and molten mozzarella tucked between golden sourdough slices — it’s the ‘pesto’ both worlds! 😋🥪✨
Ingredients:
4 slices of sourdough bread
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, grilled and sliced
4 tablespoons pesto sauce, homemade or store-bought
1 ripe tomato, thinly sliced
1 cup fresh arugula leaves
4 slices of mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat.
Generously spread pesto on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Lay down the slices of grilled chicken on top of the pesto.
Add the mozzarella cheese over the chicken and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the tomato slices on top of the cheese, then add a handful of arugula.
Top with another slice of bread, pesto side facing down.
Brush the outside of the sandwich with olive oil.
Grill the sandwich for about 3-4 minutes per side, pressing down with a spatula for even grilling, until the bread is toasted and the cheese has melted.
Slice the sandwich in half and serve while warm and melty.
