Chicken Pesto Panini
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
  • 2 slices Italian bread
  • 1 tablespoon pesto
  • 2 slices mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 pound sliced cooked chicken breast
Instructions
1
Preheat your electric grill to a medium heat setting, similar to the temperature of a warm summer day.
2
Apply a thin layer of olive oil to one side of each bread slice, taking care not to overdo it.
3
Place a single slice of bread, oil-side facing downwards, onto the preheated grill surface.
4
Spread half of the pesto sauce evenly over the bread, followed by a slice of mozzarella cheese.
5
Add sliced chicken breast on top of the cheese, and finish with another slice of mozzarella cheese.
6
Spread the remaining pesto sauce over the other bread slice, and place it on top of the sandwich to complete the assembly.
7
Seal the grill and cook for approximately 4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread has turned golden brown and crispy.
