Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

¼ cup water
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 (1.06 ounce) package mesquite marinade
2 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ medium red bell pepper, sliced
½ medium green bell pepper, sliced
½ medium onion, sliced
2 teaspoons salted butter, softened
4 slices sourdough bread
¾ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Whisk water, vegetable oil, and marinade mix together in a glass or ceramic bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes, or overnight.
  • Preheat an electric grill (such as George Foreman®) for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Place chicken on the preheated grill, close the lid, and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • While chicken is cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add bell peppers and onion and saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Butter one side of each slice of bread. Assemble 2 sandwiches by layering Monterey Jack cheese, vegetables, and chicken between the unbuttered sides of the bread.
  • Place sandwiches on the grill, close the lid, and cook until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted, about 3 minutes.

This panini was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more seasoning to the chicken next time.
