A great way to use up left over turkey and cranberry sauce. This is an OceanSpray recipe that was posted in the Houston Chronicle. Very yummy! What's more American than turkey and cranberry sauce. This recipe represents the Southwestern region of the US because of chile and monterey jack cheese.

Yield 2 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 slices Italian bread or 4 slices ciabatta
2 tablespoons cranberry sauce
2 tablespoons mayonnaise

2 slices monterey jack cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Stir cranberry sauce, mayonnaise and chipotle chile in a small bowl until well-mixed.

  • Brush both outer sides of sandwiches with olive oil.
  • Heat sandwiches in a panini press for about 5 minutes, or heat them in a large skillet over medium heat turning after five minutes or until the sandwich is toasted on both sides and hot throughout.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 slices whole-grain bread
6 ounces thinly sliced Fontina cheese
8 ounces sliced leftover turkey
1/2 cup leftover cranberry relish
1 cup arugula leaves
Extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For each sandwich, lay 2 slices bread on a work surface. Lay about 3/4 ounce cheese on one slice of the bread; top with 2 ounces turkey meat, 2 tablespoons relish, about 5-6 arugula leaves and an additional 3/4 ounce cheese. Top with the other bread slice (there should be cheese next to each bread slice). Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Brush the top of the sandwich with olive oil; heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Put the sandwich, oiled-side down, into the pan, place a small heavy pan, or aluminum foil-wrapped brick on top of the sandwich to press it down. Cook until bread is golden and crisp and cheese is beginning to melt, about 5 minutes. Remove the heavy pan or brick, brush the top of the sandwich with oil and carefully flip it. Put the heavy pan or brick back on top of the sandwich and continue cooking until bottom bread slice is browned and crisp, cheese is melted, and sandwich is heated through, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm while cooking the remaining sandwiches.
  • To serve, slice each sandwich on the diagonal and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. This will give your panini the best flavor.
  • Choose a good quality bread. A sturdy bread will hold up well to the filling and won't get soggy.
  • Don't overload the panini. Too much filling will make it difficult to close and cook evenly.
  • Use a panini press or a heavy skillet to cook the panini. This will help to flatten and grill the bread and melt the cheese.
  • Cook the panini over medium heat. This will help to prevent the bread from burning.
  • Serve the panini immediately. This is when it will be at its best.

Conclusion:

A turkey and cranberry panini is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a panini that is both satisfying and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this turkey and cranberry panini a try. You won't be disappointed!
