Instructions
-
Cut the chicken breast into seven pieces, then pound each piece flat and season with dry Italian seasoning, salt, & pepper.
-
Prep fries according to bag instructions:
OVEN: Preheat oven to 425°F. Arrange frozen potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake 18-20 minutes or until crispy. Stir halfway through cooking time to ensure even baking.
AIR FRYER: Preheat air fryer to 360°F. Fill basket with half the frozen potatoes. Cook 12-13 minutes. Slide out basket halfway through cooking time and shake.
-
While the fries cook, grill the chicken over medium heat. After the first side is cooked, top each piece of chicken with a slice of tomato, and a slice of fresh mozzarella cheese. Cook remaining side through.
-
When chicken is fully cooked, carefully remove and place each piece over a large cooked waffle fry, then top with pesto. Add another large waffle fry on top and secure with a toothpick.
