Cooking Steps

Roast chicken
1
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
  • Arrange chicken in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season all over with Zesty Garlic Blend, salt and pepper.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 14-16 min.**
Prep tomatoes
2
  • Meanwhile, cut half the tomato into 1/4-inch rounds. Cut the remaining tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
Make dressing and pesto mayo
3
  • Add half the vinegar (use all for 4 ppl), 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) pesto to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. (NOTE: This is your salad dressing.)
  • Combine remaining pesto and mayo in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. (NOTE: This is your basil pesto mayo.)
Toast buns
4
  • Arrange buns directly on the top rack of the oven, cut-side up. Toast until golden-brown, 3-4 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on buns so they don't burn!)
Make salad
5
  • Add diced tomatoes and spring mix to the bowl with dressing, then toss to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Spread basil pesto mayo over top and bottom buns. (TIP: Add some salad to the sandwiches, if desired!) Stack chicken and tomato slices on bottom buns. Close with top buns.
  • Divide salad and sandwiches between plates.

Customer reviews

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The pesto mayo was a standout favourite, and the zesty garlic seasoning on the chicken was well received. Some reviewers found the salad dressing too vinegary and the overall flavour a touch mild.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and straightforward to put together, with several reviewers appreciating that the chicken goes straight into the oven without any pan work first.
  • Suggestions: Add cheese (cheddar, havarti, or provolone), red onion, or cucumber to boost flavour and texture; grilling the chicken on the BBQ or butterflying the breast also worked well. Applying mayo to one bun and pesto to the other separately saves a dish and keeps the sandwich tidy.
  • Leftovers: Leftover chicken kept well enough for an extra sandwich the next day at lunch.
  • Portions: Some reviewers felt one tomato was not enough to cover both sandwiches and the salad, and suggested supplementing with an extra tomato or additional vegetables.
