One of our favorite go-to flavors when we want something bright and refreshing, pesto is an iconic Italian condiment traditionally made with oil, pine nuts, garlic, and basil. In the old days, Italian grandmothers would blend the ingredients by hand in a mortar and pestle. Most modern cooks use a food processor or blender, but we have an even easier hack! Carefully crafted without tree nuts or dairy, our creamy Pesto Mayo packs all the herbaceous flavor of the classic Mediterranean sauce without the extra work.

This easy-to-make pesto chicken sandwich combines the mayo with gooey melted mozzarella and oven-roasted chicken cutlets marinated in a homemade blend of Italian spices, Primal Kitchen Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and our tangy Organic Balsamic Vinegar of Modena. Pile the finished chicken with veggies atop your bun of choice and bam—you have a flavorful, filling sandwich that pairs perfectly with seasoned potato wedges, pasta salad, or parmesan zucchini fries. So go ahead, make this mouthwatering sandwich for a casual weekend lunch or easy weeknight dinner and mangia (eat up)!
