CHICKEN AND ROASTED RED PEPPER PANINI STYLE SANDWICHES
I love chicken and roasted red peppers, so I put this sandwich together--it was so yummy! My family loves them. The chicken can also be left out and the sandwich is still delicious. Add a bowl of soup or a salad and you have a perfect lunch or dinner!

ROTISSERIE CHICKEN PANINI WITH ROASTED SWEET RED PEPPER, SPINACH, AND GUACAMOLE
Pull out your panini maker and create a yummy sandwich with leftover rotisserie chicken. The cheese forms the first layer, so it can anchor the chicken pieces and get nice and gooey! The recipe is for one sandwich, but it is easily increased, if you have more in your household. Every bakery has a different size for submarine buns, so adjust the ingredients as you need.

Steps:
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 Tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Cook half of cutlets until lightly browned and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to plate and repeat with additional 1 Tablespoon oil and remaining cutlets.
- Pulse red peppers, olives, basil, garlic and 1 Tablespoon oil in food processor until coarsely chopped. Spread pepper mixture evenly over both sides of rolls. Layer half of cheese and 2 chicken cutlets over each roll bottom. Top with remaining cheese and roll tops.
- Wipe out skillet. Heat remaining oil over medium-low heat until just shimmering. Arrange panini in skillet and top with large Dutch oven. Cook until bottoms of sandwiches are crisp and cheese is beginning to melt, about 3 minutes. Remove Dutch oven, flip sandwiches, replace Dutch oven and continue to cook until crisp on second side and heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right bread: A good bread for a panini should be sturdy enough to hold up to the fillings and the heat of the grill or Panini press. Some good options include ciabatta, focaccia, and sourdough.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your panini the best flavor. Look for ripe vegetables, flavorful cheese, and high-quality meat or fish.
- Don't overload the panini: Too many fillings will make it difficult to close the panini and will also make it more likely to fall apart. Stick to a few thin layers of ingredients.
- Grill the panini until it is golden brown and crispy: This will help to seal in the fillings and create a delicious crust.
- Serve the panini immediately: Panini are best served hot and fresh. If you are making them ahead of time, you can preheat them in the oven or microwave before serving.
Conclusion:
Panini are a delicious and versatile sandwich that can be made with a variety of ingredients. With a little creativity, you can create endless flavor combinations to suit your taste. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy lunch or dinner, give panini a try!
