Ingredients
- 4 slices Turkish sandwich bread or ciabatta
- 8 ounces Cooked turkey breast, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Butter, room temperature
- 1 Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 Zucchini, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried Italian seasoning
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a panini press or a grill pan over medium heat.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the slicing onion, red bell pepper, and zucchini, stirring occasionally. Sauté for 8-10 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized. Add salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, then remove from the heat.
Step 3
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly over one side of each slice of bread. Flip one slice over so the unbuttered side is facing up.
Step 4
Layer 4 ounces of turkey slices, 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly onto the unbuttered side of the bread.
Step 5
Top with a generous spoonful of the sautéed vegetables, then place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side facing out.
Step 6
Place the sandwich in your heated press or grill pan. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the bread is golden-brown and the cheese is melted. If using a grill pan, press the sandwich gently with a spatula and flip halfway through cooking.
Step 7
Repeat with the second sandwich.
Step 8
Slice each panini in half and serve immediately with your favorite side dish or salad. Enjoy!
