Best Turkey Dressing And Cranberry Panini Recipes

TURKEY/ CRANBERRY/ DRESSING PANINI

Steps:

• Spread two slices of bread with thin layer of cold gravy.
• Layer the sandwiches with slices of turkey, stuffing, more gravy and cranberry sauce, to taste.
• Season with salt & pepper and top with chopped sage leaves.
• Spread a thick layer of cranberry sauce on the other slices of bread.
• Butter sides of the sandwich, on the outside; then toast on a preheated sandwich grill, a cast iron skillet or non-stick frying pan, pressing firmly on each side until golden brown.

TURKEY CRANBERRY PANINI

Steps:

• In a skillet/frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil and add sliced onion in. Sauté for 3-4 minutes on medium heat. When done, add cranberry sauce and stir it around. If the sauce is too thick, add little water (2-3 tbsp). Simmer for a minute before transferring the mixture into a bowl.
• Put the skillet back on the stove and add the remaining oil. Throw in sliced turkey breast pieces and let it brown slightly. When ready, turn off the heat.
• Assemble the sandwich: Spread both slices with cream cheese, top with turkey, onion cranberry sauce and a cheese. Cover with the second slice, cream cheese side down.
• Drizzle the top with little olive oil (½ tsp). Grill in a pre-heated panini machine for about 2 minutes or until it looks to your liking.

TURKEY, STUFFING, AND CRANBERRY PANINI

Steps:

• Microwave turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and gravy, separately.
• Spread mashed potatoes on bread, place turkey, stuffing, dried cranberries, and gravy in between the two pieces of bread.
• Sautee or grill in a panini maker the sandwich until bread is golden brown.

TURKEY, CRANBERRY AND FONTINA PANINI

Steps:

• For each sandwich, lay 2 slices bread on a work surface. Lay about 3/4 ounce cheese on one slice of the bread; top with 2 ounces turkey meat, 2 tablespoons relish, about 5-6 arugula leaves and an additional 3/4 ounce cheese. Top with the other bread slice (there should be cheese next to each bread slice). Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• Brush the top of the sandwich with olive oil; heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Put the sandwich, oiled-side down, into the pan, place a small heavy pan, or aluminum foil-wrapped brick on top of the sandwich to press it down. Cook until bread is golden and crisp and cheese is beginning to melt, about 5 minutes. Remove the heavy pan or brick, brush the top of the sandwich with oil and carefully flip it. Put the heavy pan or brick back on top of the sandwich and continue cooking until bottom bread slice is browned and crisp, cheese is melted, and sandwich is heated through, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm while cooking the remaining sandwiches.
• To serve, slice each sandwich on the diagonal and serve warm.

LEFTOVER THANKSGIVING PANINI

Steps:

• Spread the mustard on both slices of bread, then lay a slice of cheese on each piece. On one slice, arrange the turkey and the cranberry sauce. On the other slice, lay on the dressing and spoon the gravy over the top.
• Carefully unite the two halves into one sandwich, then spread the top side of the bread with 1 tablespoon of the butter.
• Invert the sandwich, butter-side down, onto a hot panini maker (or a grill pan or skillet over medium-low heat; see Cook's Note). Spread the top with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
• Close the panini maker and grill until the bread is crusty and golden, the fillings are hot, and the cheese is melted. (If using a grill pan or skillet, flip the sandwich halfway through to grill on the other side.)
• Pull the sandwich off the heat and slice it in half--this sandwich is to die for!

TURKEY, BRIE, AND CRANBERRY PANINI

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil and butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When the fat starts to sizzle, add the onion, thyme, and a pinch of salt and pepper, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring, until the onion slices are caramelized and golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from the heat, and cool slightly.
• Heat a panini press to medium-high. To assemble the sandwich, butter one side of a focaccia slice and place it butter-side down on grill. Top with 3 or 4 ounces of turkey, a spoonful of onion, 2 slices Brie, and a slather of cranberry sauce. Top with the remaining slice of focaccia, butter the top, and place the sandwich on the grill. Carefully lower the grill over the top, to press the sandwich together neatly, and grill until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Repeat to make the other sandwiches.

TURKEY AND CRANBERRY PANINI

Steps:

• Stir cranberry sauce, mayonnaise and chipotle chile in a small bowl until well-mixed.
• Spread cut surfaces of bread with cranberry mixture; place 1/2 of spinach (or lettuce) on each of two slices of bread, then an onion slice each, then 1/2 the turkey each, then a slice of cheese on each; place the other two slices of bread on top of each stack and slightly flatten by hand.
• Brush both outer sides of sandwiches with olive oil.
• Heat sandwiches in a panini press for about 5 minutes, or heat them in a large skillet over medium heat turning after five minutes or until the sandwich is toasted on both sides and hot throughout.
