GRILLED HAM AND ASPARAGUS PANINI



Grilled Ham and Asparagus Panini image

Grilled Ham and Asparagus Panini Recipe from Festival Foods. This is by far my most favorite sandwich of the month. I like mine with roasted asparagus and sourdough bread. Another great option is using some melty Fontina or farmers cheese. I have also made this with thick pita bread and it adds another dimension. I love to make this sandwich for those days when you want something from those expensive Bistros, but also want to make it your own. Please try your own style and let me know how it turns out for you!

I have a local eatery who makes an amazing flatbread sandwich. This panini is based on their chicken pesto sandwich. I recommend pane turano, or you may use a sturdy sourdough.

Tips:

  • For a crispier panini, use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: cook the paninis in batches if necessary to avoid steaming.
  • Use a spatula to press down on the paninis as they cook to ensure even cooking and prevent them from puffing up.
  • If using a toaster oven, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and cook the paninis for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the chicken and add extra vegetables, such as roasted red peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms.

Conclusion:

Chicken asparagus paninis are a delicious and easy-to-make lunch or dinner option. They're perfect for busy weeknights, and they can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a panini that is sure to please everyone at the table.
