NB: If you want you can also use tofu (Soya Bean Curd) instead of chicken. But, make sure you reduce the cooking time of tofu by half. Everything else remain same!
Ingredients:
20 slices of bread
1 cup of pesto sauce or, (See the recipe below!)
10 chicken breast, cut in halves, butterfly cut
50 ml. of olive oil
1/4 cup of red pepper, minced
1/2 cup of mayonnaise
1 cup of red pepper, fine wedges, brushed with some oil
2 cups of ice berg lettuce, shredded
1 tea spoon of margarine/oil

1/2 cup of olive oil
1/3rd cup of basil leaves, chopped
1/3rd. cup of pine nuts, chopped
salt-pepper
- Mix everything in a bowl and your sauce is ready!
First, marinate those chicken breasts with the pesto sauce. Put it in the fridge for 1 hour. Bake them @ 325 Degrees F for 10 min or, till they are cooked and the internal temperature reaches to 165 Degrees F. Take them off the oven. Saute those red peppers with a bit of oil/margarine. Toast the breads. Spread some mayonnaise on both sides of the bread. Put one slice of lettuce on both the breads. Put 2 chicken breasts into one bread. Add some of the sauteed red pepper & some cheese. Put the other bread on top. Cut it in half, stick in a tooth pick to hold it tight, and serve immediately. Fabulous !
