Blackstone Chicken Pesto Sandwiches is an easy recipe for the griddle or flat top grill with ciabatta bread and fresh mozzarella cheese!
Equipment
- Blackstone Griddle
- Flat Top Grill/ Griddle
Ingredients
- 4 thin cut chicken breasts
- kosher salt, pepper, all purpose seasoning blend of choice
- cooking oil of choice
- 4 ciabatta rolls sliced in half
- 1 cup pesto (store bought or link to homemade recipe in post above)
- 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese cut into 8 slices
Instructions
- Season both sides of the chicken with kosher salt, pepper, and your seasoning blend of choice.
- Preheat the griddle to medium heat. Add some cooking oil and the chicken. Cook the chicken 6 to 8 minutes total, flipping a few times.
- Put the rolls cut side down on the griddle for a minute. Then remove them and spread some pesto on the top and bottom buns. Put the bottom buns back on the griddle and top each with a chicken breast, two slices of mozzarella, and the top bun.
- Use a burger press to flatten slightly. Cover with a melting dome for a minute or two. Flip them and cover again with the melting dome until the cheese is melted.Note: If you think the buns will get too toasty before the cheese melts, just turn the griddle off.
