Chicken Parmesan Panini

Ingredients:

  • 8 slices Texas Toast or any thick-cut Italian or French bread
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups marinara, divided
  • 1 Tbsp parsley, chopped
  • 4 breaded chicken cutlets (use your favorite store-bought brand)
  • 3 cups mozzarella, shredded
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan, grated
  • 12 basil leaves
  • Salad, for serving

Preparation:

  • Preheat your panini press.


  • In a medium-size mixing bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in 1 cup marinara and the parsley.


  • Preheat your chicken cutlets.


  • Dip all of the pieces of bread into the egg mixture, then lay flat on a baking sheet. On 4 of the slices, sprinkle on some of the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan. Place a piece of chicken on top of the cheese. Spoon some of the remaining marinara over the chicken, followed by 3 basil leaves and more mozzarella and Parmesan. Place the other pieces of bread on top of all of the prepared sandwiches.


  • Spray your panini press with nonstick cooking spray and grill until the outside is lightly browned and crispy. Serve each sandwich sliced in half with a fresh salad.
