Yields 4 Servings

Ingredients:

  • 1 (13oz) Jar - A Perfect Pear Pepper Jelly
    Available at DaVine!
  • 1/2 Cup - A Perfect Pear Balsamic Pear Vinegar
    Available at DaVine!
  • 1/4 Cup - Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 Teaspoons - Coarse Salt
  • 4 Boneless Chicken Breast Halves - Pounded to 1/2" Thickness
  • Oil - To Brush The Grill or Grill Pan

  • 2 Tbsps - Sliced Almonds
  • 2 Tbsps - A Perfect Pear Champagne Pear Vinaigrette

  • 1 Large Tomato - Thinly Sliced
  • 4 Ciabatta Rolls - Split

Cooking Directions:

In a large zipper top plastic bag combine A Perfect Pear Pepper Jelly, A Perfect Pear Balsamic Pear Vinegar, the extra virgin olive oil and the coarse salt. Add the chicken breasts and marinate for at least thirty minutes.

Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill rack or grill pan with oil. Arrange the chicken on the grill and cook eight to ten minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink inside.

In a medium sized bowl, combine the the mesclun greens, almonds and A Perfect Pear Champagne Pear Vinaigrette.

To assemble sandwiches, arrange several tomato slices on the bottom half of each Ciabatta roll, top with a grilled chicken breast (cutting the chicken as necessary to fit the roll), top with the mesclun mixture and the remaining roll halves.
