Blue Cheese, Chicken, and Apple Panini
- 2 ciabatta rolls, split
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
- 2 tbsp (25 ml) honey mustard
- 4 oz (125 g) roasted chicken breast, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) baby spinach leaves
- 1/4 cup (50 ml) crumbled blue cheese
- 6 thin slices Granny Smith apple (unpeeled)
- 4 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked crisp
- Preheat panini grill to high.
- Place rolls, cut side down, on a work surface and brush crusts with oil.
- Turn rolls over and spread with mustard.
- On bottom halves, evenly layer with chicken, spinach, blue cheese, apple and bacon.
- Cover with top halves and press gently to pack.
- Place sandwiches in grill, close the top plate and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
- Variations:
- If you happen to have a firm, ripe pear, use it in place of the apple.
- I also enjoy this sandwich with crumbled feta cheese instead of the blue cheese.
