Preparation
1
Roast chicken

  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
  • On a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange chicken in a single layer. Season all over with Zesty Garlic Blend, salt and pepper. 
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 14-16 min, until cooked through.**

2
Prep tomatoes and cook bacon

  • Meanwhile, cut half the tomato into 1/4-inch rounds. Cut the remaining tomato into 1/4-inch pieces. 
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add bacon. Cook for 5-7 min, flipping occasionally, until crispy.**
  • Remove from heat.
  • Using tongs, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.

3
Make dressing and pesto mayo

  • To a large bowl, add half the vinegar (use all for 4 servings), 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) pesto. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. (NOTE: This is your salad dressing.)
  • In a small bowl, combine remaining pesto and mayo. Season with salt and pepper. (NOTE: This is your basil pesto mayo.)

4
Toast buns

  • Arrange buns directly on the top rack of the oven, cut-side up. Toast for 3-4 min, until browned. (TIP: Keep an eye on them so they don't burn!)

5
Make salad

  • To the bowl with dressing, add diced tomatoes and spring mix. Toss to combine.

6
Finish and serve

  • Spread basil pesto mayo over top and bottom buns. (TIP: Add some salad to the sandwiches, if you like!) Stack chicken, tomato slices and bacon on bottom buns. Close with top buns. 
  • Divide salad and sandwiches between plates.

7

If you've opted to add bacon, heat a large non-stick pan over medium. When hot, add bacon. Cook for 5-7 min, flipping occasionally, until crispy.** Remove from heat. Using tongs, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.

Top sandwiches with bacon when you assemble them.
