Road trip! You pick me up, and I'll make the sandwiches. Always make something decidedly delicious for someone giving you a ride - especially during the holidays; especially if you think you might need that ride again :-))
No reason not to eat great on the road!
4 boneless chicken breast halves
Marinade:
1/4 cup olive oil
palmful basil leaves, julienned
1 tsp red pepper flakes
2 Tbsp seasoned rice vinegar (I use Marukan)
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 Ciabatta or other favorite deli rolls
4 Tbsp pesto
4 Tbsp good real mayonnaise
2 cups baby spinach leaves
4 slices Provolone cheese
4 slices Prosciutto
1 cup roasted red peppers, drained
Pound the chicken breasts between sheets of plastic wrap, until about 1/4-1/2 inch thick. In a large bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients and toss the chicken in with the marinade. Marinate for at least an hour or even better, overnight.
Heat a grill. Grill the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
Remove from the grill and cool.
Meanwhile, split the rolls and spread one tablespoon pesto on one half and one tablespoon mayo on the other half. Lay a quarter of the spinach on each roll half with the mayo, followed by a quarter of the red pepper.
Lay each chicken breast on the roll half with the pesto. Top with a slice of cheese and Prosciutto. Carefully flip the two halves together and slice the sandwich in half.
Makes four sandwiches.
