Instructions
 

  • On a plate, arrange 2-4 slices of Artisan bread.
  • This sandwich may call for a glass of chilled white wine or champagne before 5 PM. It's up to you. I'm sure that any true French person wouldn't think of eating this sandwich without it.
  • Top with roasted chicken and Gouda cheese slices.
  • Garnish the plate with Cornichon pickles, Kalamata olives, cucumber slices, and mixed green salad. (you can get creative with garnishes - radishes are good too)
  • Put some of the pesto into a squirt bottle. (You may have to add a little extra virgin olive oil if it's very thick) Squirt the pesto on the top of the sandwiches.
