ROTISSERIE CHICKEN PANINI WITH ROASTED SWEET RED PEPPER, SPINACH, AND GUACAMOLE

Rotisserie Chicken Panini with Roasted Sweet Red Pepper, Spinach, and Guacamole image

Pull out your panini maker and create a yummy sandwich with leftover rotisserie chicken. The cheese forms the first layer, so it can anchor the chicken pieces and get nice and gooey! The recipe is for one sandwich, but it is easily increased, if you have more in your household. Every bakery has a different size for submarine buns, so adjust the ingredients as you need.

Ingredients

JALAPENO BACON JAM
1 pound(s) good quality bacon, fried and crumbled (or cut up and fry)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 - jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
3 clove(s) garlic, chopped
1/2 cup(s) light brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup(s) strong brewed black coffee
1/4 cup(s) maple syrup
1 tablespoon(s) balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon(s) grainy spicy brown mustard
SANDWICH
2 slice(s) favorite grilling bread per sandwich (i used a vegetable loaf) per serving
2 to 3 ounce(s) sliced chicken (deli, roasted, grilled or fried) per sandwich
2 slice(s) cheddar cheese per sandwich
- dijon mustard
- bacon jam
- fried bacon slices

Steps:

BACON JAM: Cut bacon in 1-inch pieces. Fry in large skillet over medium heat until crisp (don't over cook). Drain on paper towels. Discard all but 2 Tbsp. bacon grease. NOTE: I keep my bacon grease in the fridge for other recipes.
Sauté onion, garlic and pepper in reserved bacon grease over a medium heat for about 4 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Return bacon to pan; add remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat and continue to simmer for about 20 minutes or until thickened.
SANDWICH: Heat griddle over medium heat.
Butter the outer sides of bread; place on griddle. Spread mustard on inside of each piece of bread, layer each piece with a slice of cheddar cheese, and then add layer of chicken on one piece, top chicken with bacon jam and then place 2nd cheese, bacon slices and bread on top. Brown on each side, flipping occasionally to ensure cheese melts and that you don't burn bread.

BEST CHICKEN PANINI

Best Chicken Panini image

I have a local eatery who makes an amazing flatbread sandwich. This panini is based on their chicken pesto sandwich. I recommend pane turano, or you may use a sturdy sourdough.
