Enjoy a satisfying twist on a classic panini featuring thinly sliced grilled chicken smothered in smoky BBQ sauce, crisp lettuce and fresh tomatoes, all sandwiched between toasted whole grain bread with a hint of melted reduced-fat cheddar. This meal delivers a perfect balance of protein and flavor with a delightful crunch in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 slices Whole Grain Bread
1 slice Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
2 tomato slices
2 lettuce leaves
1 tbsp BBQ Sauce
PREPARATION
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Grill for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, lightly toast the whole grain bread slices on a separate pan or under a broiler until just crisp.
Slice the grilled chicken into thin pieces. Spread a tablespoon of BBQ sauce on one side of each bread slice.
Layer the chicken, reduced-fat cheddar cheese, tomato slices, and lettuce leaves on one bread slice.
Top with the second slice, sauce side down, and press the sandwich slightly.
Optionally, return the assembled panini to the grill for 1-2 minutes on each side to slightly melt the cheese and enhance the crispiness.
Cut the panini in half and serve warm.
