Ingredients
• 1 (16-ounce) package chicken tenders, rinsed and patted dry
• 1/2 cup prepared pesto
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1 (16-ounce) loaf ciabatta bread, sliced in half horizontally
• 4 slices pre-sliced mozzarella
• 1 cup baby arugula or spinach, rinsed and patted dry
• 2 tomatoes, sliced
• 15 fresh basil leaves
Directions
In a plastic bag, combine chicken tenders and 1/4 cup of pesto, set aside and let sit for 15 minutes.
In a small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup pesto and mayonnaise. Spread mixture on both sides of ciabatta; set aside.
Preheat an oiled grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill chicken tenders 5 minutes per side. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes. Turn the heat down to medium and re-oil the grill pan.
Place cheese on both halves of bread. Add arugula, then tomato, then basil leaves, then pesto chicken to bottom piece. Top with top half of bread. Place onto the grill pan and place a heavy pan on top of the sandwich. Grill for 3 minutes per side or until cheese starts to melt.
Cut into 4 portions and serve.

You know that tomato that fell out of the panini pissed her off to no end because it wasn't scripted. Ha it also didn't go with the table scape.
The sandwich looks dry. She even made the mayo look dry, I don't even know how that's possible, but she did it.
***** The contents between the bread can be moist e.g chicken. Good job trying to be a smart ass.
Vodka can dehydrate most things if used liberally, and we all know she uses it liberally.
foreal, did you hear the sound of that dry ass bread as she cut it😯
I bet youre dry and that's why you're so obsessed with the word . Try a different lubricant.
@@emmjayy1279did you grow up in the ghetto or are you really that ignorant? Im serious. Haven't you ever had ciabatta bread ?! LOL
Not gonna lie, I usually watch these just to be appalled or laugh but honestly, this is one of her better recipes, I would totally make it. Plus "store-bought pesto" is very convenient versus everything else she uses.
I'm going to serve this at my gurls book party luncheon. You mean alcoholics anonymous meeting don't you.
Aunt Sandy's no quitter.
Not even the hungover folks at AA would touch those lil mayo-pesto coated chicken tenders.
"Everyone I meet loves it"
I'm just imagining Aunt Sandy with a bottle of Vanilla Vodka in one hand and a pesto panini in the other screaming
"YOU'LL LOVE THIS FLAVOR!"
Im fucking dead
How many times does she have to say she marinated in store bought pesto? We get it, you didn't make anything.
+Adam Muller take a shot everytime she mentions the store bought pesto, dead in minutes
Danielle Ryser Ha! Dead before the end of this video!
Hang on, it's been a year. Do you remember that she marinated that boneless, skinless chicken breast in store bought pesto?
That's the point of
Her show numnutz.
Seven years later, she's still using store bought pesto
Isn't pesto great, so fresh and flavorful. But if only there was some way to dilute it with store bought mayonnaise...
Michael Persico .... marinades don’t have to be acidic. They can also be enzymatic. Pesto is not enzymatic though lol
I actually just made this sandwich... and oh man, it's really good. The only thing I did differently was make my own pesto (nut allergy!!), but it was all really good. Nice one, Aunt Sandy.
I can't say that all her videos are great (they're entertaining though!) but she sure knows how to do a good chicken pesto panini. Deeelicious.
When you said "deelicious" I totally heard sandy say it
Surprisingly edible for Aunt Sandy. Good job. Little iffy on the pesto mayo, but it would probably taste fine. Better if the pesto was from scratch though. She even already had the basil.
She doesn't do anything from scratch. Her whole concept 'Semi-homemade Cooking' utilizes processed and prepackaged foods for convenience and inventing ways to prepare quick, thrown-together meals so as to pass them off for meals that were laboriously prepared. The concept is appealing but most of her recipes are crap.
I'm well aware.
I'm not gonna lie... out of all of Sandra's "russipies", this one seems the most appetizing to me. I'd eat the shit outta that sandwich.
"The cheese holds everything together perfectly." Except for tomatoes apparently.... 😒😒😒
Not once did she pronounce ciabatta the same way...Jabatta, chipotta, what the hell?
*jabbata hut LMFAO
Jesus Christ LMAO
She’s a queen 🤣🤣🤣
i thought she was saying chipotle
I was gonna ask how Sandra Lee knew everyone she met likes Ciabatta... but then I realized she's just that type of crazy that would start a conversation with, "Hi! Do you like jip-oughtta bread?!?".
Put it in the Fidjerator
LMFAOOOO
"put my special man-aze on it"
the only real adjective to describe the bread she gave was that it was chewy.
*Tomato falls out taking it off the grill*
Me: Don't do it...
Sandra: *scrapes it up, tucks it back in*
"remember, i marinated these chicken breasts in some STOOORE BOUGHT PESTO"
Great flavor
Actually impressed by her tomato cutting not gonna lie😂
Why does everything have to be "lil'"? And I love how she says what's in pesto sauce twice, as if we didn't hear the first time.
(I realise this reply is 3 years late but...) she says what's in pesto twice since her recipes would be scattered throughout an episode. This channel has put them together into single videos, so the two segments could've easily been split by a commercial break or other recipes.
that... actually doesn't look too bad
This isn’t nearly as bad. Store bought pesto really is so great.
It's delicious. I made it.
Yeah. I'll make my own pesto thou and bread that's not dry
I enjoy how she doesn't shy away from using store bought ingredients!
🤗🤗🤗
I love how she just has basil growing in the fridge. I can only suspend my disbelief so much.
This is the only thing she's ever made that looks pleasantly edible.
Recently I've gone on a bit of a pesto kick because damn that stuff is great, and I like me a good sandwich as well, so naturally I've made a few sandwiches with pesto. One of the sandwiches I made I put mayonnaise on the bottom half of my ciabatta roll and pesto on the top (we just so happened to have ciabatta, I swear I wasn't thinking about this horrid russipe). I can say for a fact that mayonnaise and pesto DO NOT go well together. It creates a disgustingly creamy texture and their flavors don't compliment each other AT ALL. They clash, actually. Don't ever try it for yourself, you'll only regret it.
Mustard pairs much more nicely btw. I used a dijon or stone ground (I don't quite remember) but really whatever kind is your fave will give the best results.
flylikeabeetv pesto aioli (pesto mayo) is a VERY common ingredient at restaurants and bistros, especially on chicken or turkey sandwiches. It doesn’t clash either. It’s quite delicious. Maybe you have bad mayo or pesto!
I quite like pesto and mayo together. I think they go well together on sandwiches. I prefer pesto on its own for the most part tho
BASIL IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR LETTUCE
In a panini it’s better actually. Lettuce gets too soggy and has no flavor. Honestly you’re just nitpicking.
I have never in my life put presliced mozzarella on lasagna. I didn't even know that existed until today.
Mozzarella doesn’t even belong to lasagna💀 it’s bechamel sauce that s used for lasagna
@@goneawaysadly5135 Neapolitan lasagna is absolutely made with mozzarella and ricotta. Lasagna al forno is made with bechamel. The former is more popular outside northern Italy.
i love reading these comments
Amongst my friends, this sandwich is called "The Bus".
"Ciabatta bread is just a nice kind of wonderful chewy bread..."uhh...talk about fillers!
Her cutting into it at the end sent shivers up my spine.
I'm acutally shocked she didn't buy the tomatos already chopped
Please upload more! I really miss Sandra's cooking show.
Nobody:
Sandra Lee: Parmashaaaaawn
"and everyone i meet loves it!"
she asks people their feelings on ciabatta bread upon meeting them i guess.
Every single of her vids has a comedy factor - here it's the gigantic ciabatta, WTF?
I want real chefs reaction to Sandra Lee’s recipes
Oh no, a tomato fell out of the sandwich! I'm all for mocking drunk aunt Sandra when she deserves it, but y'all are being petty as fuck on this one.
I actually give her credits on this one for using fresh arugula and tomatoes instead of incorporating some of her favorite dry chemical ingredients. This actually looks good
This actually isn't a bad recipe for her. Maybe if she didn't mix the pesto and mayo together as well as reduce the amount of each topping used, it would be even better. I have definitely seen much worse from her.
"joo-pah-duh" 🍞 bread....I been saying it wrong all these years
how is it people have enough time to have a book club luncheon in the middle of the day, but not enough time to learn how to cook properly
*"And I'm going to lay these length-wise."* - Is she made out of stupid?
jabatta bread lol
"I love basil on everything." Even your cocktails, Aunt Sandy? She would put anything in a cocktail as long as half of the cocktail is made of vanilla vodka.
Welcome to another round of „Don't make anything taste like you made it yourself, and then take the credits for it"
This looks delish
I do all the cooking for myself and my husband... We were watching some Sandra Lee videos last night and I made him promise me that if I was in a freak accident where I lost my arms and couldn't cook, that he would swear to me he'd never feed me any of her recipes LOL.
This aired as part of the "Book Club". The only book she's been reading is the 12 step program pamphlet she received at the meeting the other night.
im on a marathon just for the comments
So if you've cooked this perfectly you should saw through the bread like a lumberjack working on a elm. Sounds beautiful. And can I tell you, so delicious.
They just didn't have canned arugula at the store that day.
"Beeeeyootiful"
Wow--mayonnaise and pesto. Oh, the humanity.
...Is she saying "chipotta" bread?
She put pesto in the chicken, pesto in the mayonnaise, and then added fresh basil to it even tho basil is already in the pesto she put in both the chicken and the mayonnaise. This would actually be edible if it weren't for the five pounds of basil that's in this.
"No one will ever know that happened"
Yeah, tell that to all the people who watched this fucking video
I like how her kitchen window view can go from tree top to garden.
It wouldn't be a Sandra Lee recipe if it didn't pass through a plastic bag.
she keeps a potted plant in the fridge
Wrought Bedpan 😂😂😂😂😂☝️☝️☝️☝️
Yes it’s basil to keep it cold and crisp. You don’t know that ?
I think it is a pitcher with just some water to keep the basil fresh.
@HaoProductions3 Just what color do you think it's supposed to be? Yellow? Blue? Pink? Purple. Hello, basil (what pesto is typically made of) is GREEN.
Can i ask does anyone not know they can't buy pesto from the store?
@wespolly what's wrong with mixing pesto and mayo or herbs and mayo?
I'm sure Sandra is a lovely person and I'm not tryin to hate on her or anything, but my mom makes hella rad green spaghetti (with pesto) and we had to eat affordable too; I'm pretty sure ANY sort of homemade pesto is cost effective and much better than whatever it is she's using. I'm personally offended by that pesto. I didn't even get through the first minute before I had to pause and type this comment. I get that people are poor, I am also people who is poor, but dang guys...... Don't cut back on the pesto. That's horrifying. Save yourselves. Love yourselves.
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Know👋your 👋 worth periodt
I'm so late to this but pine nuts are really expensive. So is parmesan cheese and good Olive oil. Buying all those ingredients to make pesto would be hella expensive. This show is about using pre made store bought stuff. I think a little tub of store bought pesto is just fine here in a sandwich.
@@sophievanderbilt1325I agree! I cannot afford pine nuts, but I have substituted walnuts in their place & it still makes a fabulous pesto. It freezes well too! Store bought pesto is also delicious & I use it often (except Aldi's - it does not taste good to me at all 😂)
ciPatta bread..? and her special little trick for melting the cheese was.. heating it up? Oh Sandy, you are such a magician
Stop haters! If u don't like her stop watching her or at least just stop with the comments I actually like the food net work and if u need to make suggestions put it in a NICE way I hate the people who are like oh that's horrible, yulch and ok we get it ur mean and too judge just STOP if u were going to make a channel what if people said bad thing about urs?!its not too late to stop yet
im sure shes a nice lady over all. she doesnt really know how to cook lol
She cooked good enough to get a show... He premise was never 100% homemade. I don't hear none of these haters talking about their cooking show offers.... Idk how it's so alluring to watch a person who "can't cook" to these ppl or take time out of there "semi-precious" day to comment. Is moving on, not an option any more?
But this is the most authentic recipe she's made fresh tomatoes, arugula, basil and chicken is not from a can!
This looks freaking delicious!!
@PinkkBubblegum Traditionally Panini's are made with Ciabatta or another italian white bread
"Chipatta bread." LMFAO!
the number of times she recites the ingredients of the pesto...
pesto with mayonaisse? this is a hate crime
If you take a quarter cup of pesto, and then take another quarter, your cup shouldn't be empty, Aunty Sandy!
This looks really good but one question. Aren't ya supposed to wash/rinse the chicken first?
No. That practice is outdated and no longer recommended.
No. That practice is no longer recommended.
What kind of chicken was this again?
No pre-sliced tomato?
i just love flavoure resources
I made this because I do love pesto and was curious to see how it would turn out. It was awful. Pesto is too acidic.
Too bad the homemade pesto craze took off.....thank goodness! Fresh is super quick im surprised she dirnt just whip up Pesto...truly Lazy Susan here...oohh Sandra
Everybody's already criticized what I had to criticize, so now I'll say my one positive: I never actually thought of marinating chicken in pesto. It doesn't look great, but I'm sure it probably tastes fine, and if it was in a sandwich it wouldn't matter if it didn't look great anyways. But not with the mayonnaise. There's already oil in the pesto why do you need mayonnaise
I think the pesto mayonnaise is a great idea!
and it's beeeeeyuutiful!
and to say I use to love watching her.
Maybe I missed this... are these boneless, skinless?
Any time she says lil or nice in this video take two shots of vodka. You won't be disappointed.
Hint:
lil- 9 times (18 shots)
nice- 12 times (24 shots)
lil chicken tenders, lil bit of this, lil chicken strips, lil massage, lil chicken filets, lil bit of store bought pesto, just a lil bit, lil bit of basil, lil bit of a wash
nice and hot, nice and hot (again), nice kind of wonderful, nice and cheesy, nice and fast, nice fresh basil, nice ripe tomato, nice big heavy skillet, nice and melted, nice rustic wholesome fantastic, nice beautiful slices, nice crusty bread
Also "fintastic"
I've never heard of Chew-Pata bread it looks similar to Ciabatta bread, though, I wonder if it tastes similar as well...
This looks good Aunt Sandy
How does two giant spoonfuls of pesto equal 1/4 cup? She sucks at measuring.
I swear I laugh so hard in the comment section of every Aunt Sandy video. You all are salty AF! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Beeeeuuuuitifullllll!
if the cheese can rly hold everything together then why did the tomato came off?
I love how everyone in the comments suddenly never buys store bought and makes everything from scratch and such. I know you guys make and cook food like Sandra Lee lmao!
I would totally eat the shit out of this sandwich. I would not, however, dump a shit ton of seeds on Pillsbury pizza dough and try to pass it off as authentic Indian naan bread.
I'd make my own pesto sauce but this recipe isn't bad at all.
if it's a panini, why is she using ciabatta?
@UltimateGrobanite What he means is that that pesto is brownish, a.k.a. not fresh. Fresh pesto is supposed to be green. That looks like three-days-old guacamole.
"No one will know that just happened, its just between you and me." ... and the rest of the world
Great flavor.
"Nobody'll ever know that that just happened, right? It's just between you and me."
Yes, Aunt Sandy. Just you and me. As well as everyone who originally watched this episode on television- i'd estimate that's about 100,000 people during that hour. Oh, and everyone who commented on this RUclips video. Oh, and don't forget those anonymous viewers that don't have accounts.
Yeeeup. Just you and me.
everyone loves the thing that she cooks LOL
These videos are even better at .5 speed
@Michelle2815CV marinating in a ziplock bag just keeps the flavours and scents from escaping, doesn't make a big difference if it's only for 15 minutes, though
Also, it may look yummy but: ciabatta is a very oily bread, she's using cheese, pesto and mayonnaise on it which are all oily foods. Great balance.
Oh wait, I did think of something. I prefer focaccia for paninis. I personally don't like the crust on ciabatta or the dry texture.
