Make amazing Chicken Pesto Sandwiches that are just like you&#039;d pay top dollar for at a cafe. Tender chicken is topped with melty cheese, tomatoes, and fresh basil pesto on ciabatta bread.

Chicken Pesto Sandwich

chicken breasts

Italian seasoning

salt and pepper (to season the chicken)

olive oil

ciabatta bread rolls (or 3 sandwich size rolls)

mayonnaise

pesto

mozzarella cheese (sliced)

tomatoes (sliced)

salt (to season the tomatoes)

Season both sides of the chicken cutlets with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering, add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the chicken is browned and has an internal temperature of 165°F/74°C. Remove the cutlets from the pan and keep warm while you assemble the rest of the sandwiches.

Split the ciabatta rolls in half lengthwise, and spread both sides with a thin layer of mayo followed by the pesto. Add the chicken cutlets to the bottom rolls, and top with mozzarella and tomato slices. Season the tomatoes with salt, and cover with the top half of the rolls.

Toast the sandwiches in a toaster oven or sandwich press until the cheese is melty and the bread is toasted. Serve with chips or a side salad.
