Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat the grill to medium-high (approx. 450°F). Wash and dry all produce.
  • Cut zucchini into 1/4-inch slices lengthwise. Drizzle with 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil and season salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Halve tomatoes lengthwise, then thinly slice into 1/4 inch-moons. Season with salt and pepper.
Prep chicken
2
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and Zesty Garlic Blend. Drizzle 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil over top. Flip to coat.
Make pesto mayo and salad dressing
3
  • To a small bowl, add pesto and mayo. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
  • Split sandwich buns and drizzle with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. 
  • To a large bowl, add Dijon, balsamic vinegar, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk to combine.
Grill chicken and zucchini and toast buns
4
  • Add chicken to one side of the grill. Grill for 4-6 min per side, until chicken is cooked through.**
  • Add zucchini to other side of the grill. (TIP: Place perpendicular to the grates so zucchini doesn't fall through.) Close lid and grill for 2-3 min, flipping once, until tender.
  • When chicken is almost done, add buns to the grill, cut-sides down. Close lid and grill 1-2 min, until toasted.
  • Transfer chicken, zucchini and buns to a plate.
Finish and serve
5
  • To the large bowl with dressing, add spinach and arugula. Toss to combine.
  • Spread pesto mayo on cut sides of top and bottom buns.
  • Stack zucchini, chicken and tomato on bottom buns. Close with top buns. Divide between plates.
  • Divide salad between plates.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: Many enjoyed the sandwich, praising the pesto and veggies. Some found it bland; consider adding extra seasoning or roasted peppers for more flavor.
  • Ease of prep: The sandwich was filling but messy to eat. Try cutting ingredients smaller or using wider bread to keep everything together.
  • Suggestions: Toast the buns longer for better texture. For the salad, reduce the vinegar in the dressing or serve it on the side.
  • Portions: The salad portion was too small for some; consider increasing the amount of greens or adding more vegetables.
