Ingredients
- 4 lices sourdough bread
- 4 tbsp pesto
- 8 lices turkey breast Primo Taglio brand, pan roasted
- 6 oz Brie cheese sliced, Primo Taglio Domestic brand
- 3 oz tomatoes chopped, sun dried
- 1/2 cup artichokes chopped, marinated
- 2 tbsp butter unsalted
Instructions
- Place the bread sliced on a board.
- Spread pesto on all 4 sliced of sourdough bread.
- Fold the pan roasted turkey slices in half and place two on two slices of bread.
- top the turkey with slices of brie, marinated artichokes and sun dried tomatoes. Top with two more slices of turkey for each panini. Top with the remaining two slices of bread.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat and melt half a tablespoon butter in it. Set the heat to medium low and place the panini in the pan. Sear for about 5 to 7 minutes until it's golden. Slide a spatula under the panini and place you hand on top of the panini. Carefully flip it and add another half a tablespoon of butter. Sear for another 5 to 7 minutes until golden and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the other panini as well.
Notes
- Cast iron skillets are perfect for making paninis at home, especially if the bread slices are thick. Make sure your skillet is pretty hot before placing the panini in the pan.
- Melt about half a tablespoon of butter in the pan before you start cooking. This would give the panini a very nice sear and color plus it makes it extra crispy.
- Make sure the heat is medium to medium low so the cheese melts completely.
- You can use homemade or store-bought pesto for this recipe.
