I am a lover of hot sandwiches. I used leftover seasoned grilled chicken breast to make this delicious, gooey panini. It was love at first bite!
Ingredients
Garlic-Basil Mayo
- ½ cup light mayonnaise
- ½ cup torn basil leaves
- 1 clove garlic, coarsely chopped
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 pinch salt
Chicken Panini
- 2 slices Italian bread
- 2 thin slices fresh mozzarella cheese
- 1 (4 ounce) grilled, seasoned chicken breast, butterflied
- 2 (1/4 inch thick) slices tomato
- 1/8 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Combine mayonnaise, basil, garlic, cayenne, and salt for garlic-basil mayo in a food processor; blend until smooth. Place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to mix.
Step 2
Preheat a panini maker.
Step 3
Spread garlic-basil mayonnaise to taste on each slice of bread. Assemble sandwich with cheese, chicken, tomato, and spinach. Brush the outside of the sandwich with olive oil.
Step 4
Grill in the preheated panini maker until golden brown and cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
Cook’s Notes:
I like to use Buffalo mozzarella and chicken that has been brushed with olive oil, seasoned with salt, pepper, cloves, oregano, garlic, and lemon, and then grilled. You can use sourdough or pumpernickel bread instead of Italian.
