Przygotowanie

  1. Make the roasted red pepper pesto

    • In a food processor, combine the roasted red peppers, toasted pistachios, garlic cloves, basil leaves, grated Parmigiano Reggiano and 1/4 cup (60 ml) of olive oil.
    • Blend until smooth, adding more olive oil if necessary.
    • Season with salt to taste and set aside.

  2. Caramelise the onions

    • Heat 1/2 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat.
    • Add the thinly sliced red onions with a pinch of salt and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
    • Sprinkle the brown sugar over the onions and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until caramelised and golden brown, 15-20 minutes.
    • Stir in the apple cider vinegar and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
    • Set aside.

  3. Cook the crispy chicken

    • Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
    • Season with dried basil, salt and pepper on both sides.
    • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Place the chicken skin-side down and cook for 5-7 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
    • Flip and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
    • Set aside.

  4. Assemble and grill the sandwich

    • Preheat the grill.
    • Toast the sourdough slices until lightly crispy.
    • Spread the roasted red pepper pesto on one side of each slice.
    • Place the crispy chicken thighs on the toast, followed by slices of provolone cheese.
    • Place under the grill just until the cheese has melted.
    • Remove from the heat and top the chicken with the caramelised onions.
    • Dress the rocket leaves with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt.
    • Place the dressed rocket over the onions.
    • Top with the remaining pesto-covered sourdough slice and enjoy.
