Recipe
Marinade:
In large bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, garlic, oregano, sugar, mustard, soy sauce and pepper. Add chicken breasts; turn to coat. Let stand for 10 minutes or cover and refrigerate for up to 12 hours.
Place chicken on greased grill over medium heat; spoon any remaining marinade over chicken. Close lid and grill, turning once, until no longer pink inside, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; sauté mushrooms until browned, about 5 minutes; set aside.
In small bowl, combine mayonnaise with pesto; spread over cut sides of buns. Sandwich chicken, mushrooms, cheese, roasted pepper and sun-dried tomatoes in buns. Place on greased grill over medium heat. Grill, turning once and pressing on sandwich with spatula, until cheese is melted and buns are golden, about 5 minutes.
