Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast
- 6 slices Cooked bacon
- 4 slices Provolone cheese
- 0.25 cups Ranch dressing
- 4 Ciabatta rolls
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 1 cup Baby spinach (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your panini press to medium-high heat. If you don't have a panini press, heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
In a small bowl, season the cooked chicken breast with salt and ground black pepper, ensuring it's evenly coated.
Slice the ciabatta rolls in half horizontally and spread a thin layer of butter on the outer sides of each roll.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of ranch dressing on the inner side of both halves of each ciabatta roll.
Layer each bottom half with 1/2 cup of seasoned chicken, 1-2 slices of cooked bacon, 1 slice of provolone cheese, and a handful of baby spinach (if using). Place the top half of the roll on each sandwich.
Carefully place the assembled sandwiches in the panini press and close the lid. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted. If using a skillet, press the sandwich down with a heavy pan and flip halfway through cooking.
Remove the paninis from the heat and let them rest for 1-2 minutes before cutting them in half.
Serve the Chicken Bacon Ranch Paninis warm and enjoy!
