This melty, decadent and easy-to-make chicken panini is perfect for a quick lunch or a casual weekend treat.
Ingredients
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
4-1/2 teaspoons grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon prepared pesto
1/4 teaspoon grated lemon zest
dash pepper
4 slices sourdough bread
1/4 pound sliced rotisserie chicken
4 slices ready-to-serve fully cooked bacon
2 slices smoked part-skim mozzarella cheese
2 slices red onion, separated into rings
4 slices tomato
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions
In a small bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients; spread half over 2 bread slices. Layer with chicken, bacon, mozzarella cheese, onion and tomato. Spread remaining mayonnaise mixture over remaining 2 bread slices; place over top. Brush outsides of sandwiches with butter.
