A warming treat for a freezing day

It's absolutely tipping it down today so after a soaking and teeth chattering journey to my house which involved getting drenched on the way I was absolutely starving for something juicy which would tickle my tastebuds. After drying my hair and making a cup of tea I raided the fridge feeling in desperate need of a sandwich which would suit the gloomy and dismal weather. Incoorporating one of my favourite toppings for pasta which is pesto with some sumptious focaccia bread you can make this fantastically simple yet elegant looking sandwich.


You'll need:

1 slice focaccia bread cut in half

3 small chicken fillets
15 ml mayonnaise
10g basil pesto
30g sun dried tomato pesto
55g roasted red peppers
125g crumbled feta cheese
20g fresh basil leaves

Method:

Fry the chicken lightly in a pan until browning. Mix mayo and basil pesto in a small bowl and spread onto half of the focaccia. Spread other half with sun dried tomato pesto and arrange the roasted red peppers onto the bottom piece. Pop the pieces of chicken on top and then cover with feta cheese then fresh basil. Lastly top with remaining slice of focaccia. Easy, elegant and by gum its tasty!
