Frontega Chicken Panini
- 1/4 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 Chipotle chile in adobo finely chopped, plus adobo sauce to taste
- Kosher salt plus more as needed
- Black pepper plus more as needed
- 1 1/2 cups Rotisserie chicken shredded
- 2 pieces Focaccia bread halved horizontally (about 4" x 4")
- 1/4 cup Fresh basil
- 4 oz Mozzarella cheese sliced 1/4-inch thick
- 1 Tomato sliced 1/4-inch thick
- 1/2 Red onion thinly sliced
- 1 tsp Extra-virgin olive oil
Carrots and Hummus
- 1 cup Carrots peeled and cut into sticks (or baby carrots)
- 1/2 cup Hummus
Lemon Sparkling Water with Chia Seeds
- 24 oz Sparkling water cold
- 1 Lemon sliced
- 2 tsp Chia seeds
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients as listed.
- In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, chopped chipotle chile, adobo sauce to taste, kosher salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
- Brush the cut sides of the focaccia lightly with olive oil. Spread the chipotle mayo evenly over the inside of each piece of bread.
- Layer the sandwiches with fresh basil, shredded chicken, mozzarella, tomato slices, and red onion. Salt and pepper to taste. Close the sandwiches firmly.
- Preheat a panini press or grill pan. Place the sandwiches inside and cook until the focaccia is crisp and golden brown on both sides and the mozzarella is fully melted, about 5–7 minutes.
- Combine the sparkling water, lemon slices and chia seeds. Stir thoroughly, let sit for 2–3 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
- Serve the Frontega chicken panini alongside carrot sticks, hummus, and lemon chia sparkling water.
