It's Here! It's Here! I know you had dreams last night about this recipe and woke up with drool on your pillow.... and rightfully so. This Panini was so delish, it had my husband asking for seconds and thirds and quite possibly fourths! So enough about the amazing-ness of this sandwich, here is the recipe:
Ingredients
Dijon Chicken Marinade:
- 1/3 cup of Dijon mustard
- 2 T. apple cider vinegar
- 2 T. honey
- 1 T. lemon juice
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp. black pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt
Panini:
- Slices of whole wheat bread
- Smoked mozzarella cheese
- Cooked bacon
- Dijon chicken
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
Directions:
Combine mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, and honey in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Add spices and stir. Pepare chicken breast and place in a large plastic storage bag. Pour marinade over chicken. Gently shake chicken in closed bag to cover chicken completely. Refrigerate 1 hour. Grill or bake chicken. If baking, preheat oven to 350 cook 20 minutes flip and cook another 20 minutes. Once chicken is cooked, butter one side of each bread slice, spread mustard on non-buttered side of one slice of bread. Add one slice of cheese, as much bacon as you'd like:) and chicken. Top with second slice of bread and toast in a George Foreman Grill, Panini press, or you can toast in a frying pan and flip, or oven. Cook until cheese is melted and bread is golden brown. Enjoy!
