Caprese Chicken Burger

Servings: 2 burgers
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15-20 minutes
Total Time: 30-35 minutes

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

Drizzle olive oil over the chicken breasts and season them with salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through (internal temperature of 75°C / 165°F).

Once cooked, remove from the grill and let the chicken rest for a few minutes.

Step 3

While the chicken is grilling, lightly toast the ciabatta rolls on the grill or in a toaster oven until they are golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside.

Step 4

Spread about 2 tablespoons of basil pesto on the bottom halves of the toasted ciabatta rolls.

Place the grilled chicken breast on top of the pesto.

Add 2 slices of fresh mozzarella and a few slices of tomato on top of the chicken.

Drizzle balsamic glaze generously over the tomatoes and mozzarella for extra flavor.

Step 5

Optionally, garnish with a few fresh basil leaves for an added burst of freshness.

Place the top half of the ciabatta roll on the burger to complete the sandwich.

Step 6

Serve the Caprese Chicken Burgers immediately with a side of salad, fries, or grilled vegetables.

Optional Variations:

Add avocado for extra creaminess.
Use sun-dried tomatoes instead of fresh for a more intense tomato flavor.
Grill the mozzarella slightly to make it more melty and gooey.
