The Chicken and Cheese Panini is a popular Italian-inspired grilled sandwich featuring tender, seasoned chicken paired with melted cheese, nestled between slices of crusty, artisan bread. Often enhanced with toppings like spinach, tomato, and a light pesto or mayonnaise spread, this savory dish combines rich flavors and a satisfying crunch. It provides a good source of protein from the chicken and calcium from the cheese, contributing to muscle health and bone strength. Whole-grain bread options are an excellent choice for added fiber and micronutrients. However, the panini can be higher in sodium and saturated fats depending on the type of cheese and spreads used. For a healthier version, opt for reduced-sodium cheese, lean chicken, and skip heavier sauces. Enjoy it as a midday meal or dinner with a side of fresh greens to balance indulgence with nutrition.
