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 high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, ripe vegetables, flavorful cheese, and succulent chicken. This will ensure that your panini is packed with flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the panini press: If you try to cook too much food at once, the panini will not cook evenly. Cook the panini in batches if necessary.
- Press the panini firmly: Use a heavy panini press or a weight to press the panini down. This will help to create a crispy, golden crust.
- Cook the panini until the cheese is melted and gooey: The ideal temperature for the cheese is 165°F (74°C). You can use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the panini.
- Serve the panini immediately: Paninis are best enjoyed hot and fresh. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara sauce or pesto.
Conclusion:
The chicken and roasted pepper panini is a delicious and versatile sandwich that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or a snack. With its crispy bread, flavorful filling, and melted cheese, this panini is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
