INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
2 slices Whole Grain Bread
1 tbsp Homemade Basil Pesto
1/4 cup Roasted Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Roasted Zucchini
1/8 cup Roasted Red Onion
1 cup Arugula
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the vegetables.
Slice the red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into even pieces. Toss them lightly with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon. Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked. Let it rest, then slice thinly.
Toast the whole grain bread slices lightly in a toaster or skillet.
Spread 1 tablespoon of homemade basil pesto on each slice of bread.
Layer the sliced chicken on one slice of the bread, top with the roasted vegetables and a handful of fresh arugula.
Close the sandwich with the top slice, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately.
