Toasted Italian Chicken Panini

"This recipe came from a craving for a toasted sandwich. It's real easy to make. I guesstimated (high) on cooking time, since I never watch the clock as I cook, sorry."

directions

  • Heat oven to 400°F.
  • Take chicken, put in shallow baking dish, sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Cook until no longer pink, 30-40 minutes.
  • While cooking slice bread into chunky sandwich slices and butter.
  • When chicken is done take out and set oven to broil, place bread under broiler. **Watch the bread, it only takes a couple of minutes and will burn very quickly.**.
  • Remove bread and keep broiler on.
  • Cut the chicken in half, to make it thinner.
  • Slice the avocado.
  • Take the toasted bread bottoms, layer; 1 slice cheese, 1/2 of 1 chicken breast, 2 tomato slices, 3 basil leaves, 2 slices of avocado, 1/2 slice of chicken, 1 slice of cheese.
  • When finished put top of sandwiches on and press down with palm of your hand.
  • Stick back under broiler until cheese is melted, *watch closely*.
  • I serve with a side salad.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Upstate NY with my son. Giovanni, my son, is a year. I enjoy playing with him, taking walks to the park, reading and, of course, cooking. Right now I am working towards my BA so my son and I can have a better life. In my extra time (haha..does that even exist), I love cooking. I love to experiment, my poor son is to young to verblize when he doesn't like something, but he sure knows how to throw the food :)! Cooking relieves stress and is just something I absoultly love.
