Spring ushers in grilling season
Th e return of warm weather is synonymous with many things. For men and
women who love to grill, spring marks a return to grilling their favorite foods
and dining outdoors.
Burgers and hot dogs may never go out of style, but plenty of additional foods
can make for delicious grilled meals. Grilled chicken, for example, makes for
a healthy meal the whole family can enjoy. Grilled chicken sandwiches, such
as the following recipe for “Grilled Chicken Ciabatta with Romesco and Baby
Greens” from Karen Adler and Judith Fertig’s “Th e Gardener & Th e Grill: Th e
Bounty of the Garden Meets the Sizzle of the Grill” (Running Press), can make
for a nice change of pace from more traditional grilling fare.
Grilled Chicken Ciabatta with Romesco and Baby Greens
Serves 4

2
loaves ciabatta or 4 ciabattini (ciabatta rolls), sliced in half lengthwise
Olive oil, for brushing
Fine kosher or sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded to a 1⁄2-inch
thickness
recipe Romesco Sauce (see below)
Small wedge (about 4 ounces) of Manchego or
Parmesan cheese, for shaving
cups baby greens
Prepare a hot fi re in your grill.
Brush the cut sides of the ciabatta with olive oil. Brush the chicken breasts with
olive oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper.
Grill the chicken, turning once, for 5 minutes total. Grill the ciabatta, cut sides
down, until it has good grill marks, 1 to 2 minutes.
Slather all the grilled sides of the ciabatta with the Romesco. Place the chicken
breasts on the bottom half of the bread, shave some Manchego cheese over
the chicken, then top with baby greens and the top half of the bread. If you’re
using a loaf of ciabatta, you’ll have 2 chicken breasts on each loaf, so cut each
loaf in half horizontally. If you’re using ciabattini, you’ll use 1 breast for each
roll. Serve immediately.
