Instructions
- Cut up the boneless chicken into small bite-sized chunks then add into a bowl along with the ingredients for marination (See Note 1).
- In a pan heat up 1 tbsp oil on medium heat until hot then add the marinated chicken mixture
- Cook for 6-8 minutes until the chicken has changed colour
- As the chicken is cooking finely dice the onion and bell pepper then add into the pan and cook for a further 4-5 minutes
- Finely dice the tomato then add into the pan along with the tomato puree and cook for another 2-3 minutes
- Once the chicken mixture is cooked slice the panini breads lengthwise then add the tomato ketchup and mayonnaise (See Note 2).
- Add the chicken mixture to the panini along with mozzarella cheese.
- In a grill pan add the oil then brush evenly over the pan and allow to heat up before adding the panini then grill for 2-3 minutes on both side until lightly charred. (See Note 3)
- Serve with a side of French fries and enjoy!
Notes
- Note 1 – You can set it aside and let it marinate, the longer the chicken is left to marinade the better the flavour. However, as I was short on time, I cooked it straight away and it still tasted delicious.
- Note 2 – I used mayonnaise and tomato ketchup but you can use any sauce of your preference. If you prefer, you can also add chilli sauce or even replace it with bbq sauce.
- Note 3 – This recipe can easily make five paninis, or if you prefer to use less chicken then it can also make six paninis.
