③ Spread pesto on each side of the Turano mini French rolls and toast or grill and set aside for assembly. Next, in a small mixing bow, add mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon, Calabrian chilis and combine for a spicy aioli.
④ Build the sandwiches by spreading the Calabrian chili aioli on each side then add a sliced chicken cutlet, thin prosciutto, sliced roasted red peppers, sliced mozzarella, and more aioli. Top it off with arugula, basil and a drizzle of balsamic glaze.
