INGREDIENTS
3 oz Grilled Chicken Breast
2 slices Whole Grain Bread
1/2 cup Roasted Zucchini
1/2 cup Roasted Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp Fresh Basil Pesto
1 oz Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
PREPARATION
Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of dried herbs, then grill for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked. Let it rest and slice thinly.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss chopped zucchini and red bell pepper in a small drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast them on a baking sheet for about 15 minutes, or until tender with slight char.
Lightly toast the whole grain bread slices either on the grill or in a toaster oven.
Spread a thin layer of fresh basil pesto on one side of each bread slice.
Layer the chicken slices, roasted vegetables, and low-fat mozzarella cheese on one slice of bread. Top with the second slice, pesto side down.
Press the assembled sandwich in a panini press or weigh it down in a skillet over medium heat, cooking until the cheese melts slightly and the bread has a crisp, golden exterior.
Remove from heat, slice, and serve warm.
