Tonight I am cooking for one! My husband is off doing a happy hour with co-workers, so it’s just me for dinner. Heat grill/panini maker to high. Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Please leave a comment on the blog or share a photo on Instagram
Sometimes it’s nice being able to cater to one person’s taste buds than rather than pleasing several others.
Now onto the bad part! I’ve had a panini/grill underneath my cabinets for lets say 8 months. I’ve used the griddle quite a bit but never made a panini using it. Sad thing is that I begged for Shaun to let me put this on our wedding registry just because of the panini grills.
To whoever bought us the panini maker thank you so much; I will no neglect it. My sandwich was perfect and I love it so much. I might even whip up this sandwich more often so that I can eat it again and of course let Shaun try it out. He may be at a happy hour, but he hates when I try new recipes and he is not around to try them out.
If you like southwestern flavors then this panini will hit the spot.
ENJOY!
Pepper Jack Turkey Panini
Instructions
Lay down the buttered side on the panini maker and top with the dressing.
Use a knife to make sure lower slice is well covered.
Then layer with turkey, tomatoes, bacon, cheese, and last slice of bread.
Make sure the bread on that slice is also on the outer side.
Close the panini press and cook for minute or two and then move temperature knob to the sear setting to brown the edges perfectly.
This should take about 45 seconds.
Remove and your panini is now ready.Did you make this recipe?
