Grilled Chicken Pesto Sandwich
Fresh, savory, and bursting with vibrant flavors, the Grilled Chicken Pesto Sandwich is a delicious twist on a classic grilled chicken sandwich — perfect for lunch, brunch, or a light yet satisfying dinner. Combining tender grilled chicken with aromatic pesto, this sandwich delivers a taste of the Mediterranean in every bite.

It starts with a juicy chicken breast, lightly seasoned with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil, then grilled until perfectly charred and tender. The star of the sandwich is a generous spread of fresh basil pesto — a bright, herbaceous blend of basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil that infuses every bite with fragrant, nutty flavor.

The warm, grilled chicken is layered onto crusty bread — like ciabatta, sourdough, or a toasted baguette — and topped with fresh ingredients such as sliced tomatoes, crisp arugula or baby spinach, and sometimes melted mozzarella or provolone for an extra touch of creamy indulgence.

The sandwich is lightly pressed or toasted until the bread is golden and slightly crisp, the cheese (if added) is perfectly melty, and the pesto melds into the juicy chicken for a rich, satisfying bite.

Served warm with a side of salad, fries, or a cup of soup, the Grilled Chicken Pesto Sandwich is a fresh, wholesome choice that’s simple yet packed with bold, irresistible flavor.
