Preheat a panini press or a stovetop grill pan over medium heat.
Slice the ciabatta rolls in half lengthwise to create a top and bottom. Spread 1 tablespoon of chipotle mayo onto the cut side of each roll half.
Layer 2 ounces of cooked turkey breast on the bottom half of each roll.
Add a slice of provolone cheese on top of the turkey.
Place 2-3 slices of tomato, a few thin slices of red onion, and a handful of baby spinach on top of the cheese layer.
Close the panini with the top half of the ciabatta roll, chipotle mayo-side down.
Lightly brush the outside of each ciabatta roll with olive oil to prevent sticking and help with browning.
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter on the panini press or grill pan. Place the paninis on the press and close the lid, or press down firmly with a spatula if using a stovetop grill pan.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted. If using a panini press, this should take 3-4 minutes total.
Remove the paninis from the heat, slice in half, and serve warm. Enjoy your flavorful Chipotle Turkey Panini!
