A great way to use up left over turkey and cranberry sauce. Very yummy. What's more American than turkey and cranberry sauce. This recipe represents the Southwestern region of the US because of chile and monterey jack cheese. Ingredients:
4 slices italian bread or 4 slices ciabatta |
2 tablespoons cranberry sauce |
2 tablespoons mayonnaise |
1 chipotle chile in adobo, finely chopped |
1/2 cup fresh spinach (i used curly red tip lettuce) |
2 slices onions (i like red onion) |
8 ounces sliced turkey |
2 slices monterey jack cheese |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. Stir cranberry sauce, mayonnaise and chipotle chile in a small bowl until well-mixed.
2. Spread cut surfaces of bread with cranberry mixture; place 1/2 of spinach (or lettuce) on each of two slices of bread, then an onion slice each, then 1/2 the turkey each, then a slice of cheese on each; place the other two slices of bread on top of each stack and slightly flatten by hand.
3. Brush both outer sides of sandwiches with olive oil.
4. Heat sandwiches in a panini press for about 5 minutes, or heat them in a large skillet over medium heat turning after five minutes or until the sandwich is toasted on both sides and hot throughout.
