Chicken Cordon Bleu Panini

When it comes to sandwiches I consider myself somewhat of a connoisseur.  Professional.  Expert.

 

The problem with sandwiches?  I don’t actually like making my own.  You see, sandwiches that meet the caliber of sandwich that I prefer are rather time intensive for – you know – a sandwich.  In an ideal world I would work at home and have the ability to bake my own bread, slow-roast my own meat and veggies, and have the capability to grow heirloom lettuce and tomatoes in my backyard.  I think it’s pretty obvious that’s not the case, and so I definitely need help where I can get it!

Enter Perdue Short Cuts.  A couple weeks ago I was contacted by the company to give their chicken shortcuts a try, and I all but jumped at the chance!  There are definitely days in my life where there’s hardly time to eat, let alone spend time cooking and preparing everything for a meal.  The moment I found these in my grocery store I decided to make Chicken Cordon Bleu panini.

 

We’ll just say ’twas a genius idea!

CHICKEN CORDON BLEU PANANI (makes 4 sandwiches)

  • 4 sandwich rolls
  • 4 Laughing Cow triangles of Swiss Cheese
  • 1 package Perdue Short Cuts Rotisserie or Grilled chicken
  • 8 slices of ham
  • 4 slices of Swiss cheese
  • 4 Tbsp dijon mustard
  • salt

Divide all sandwich rolls in half.  Spread 1 Tbsp of dijon mustard on one side and 1 Laughing Cow cheese on the other.  Sprinkle the cheese with pepper.  Add 1/4 of the package of Perdue chicken on top of the cheese, then top with 2 slices of ham and 1 slice of Swiss cheese.  Top with the other side of the bread.  Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt; grill on a panini press for 3-4 minutes on each side til the middle is warmed through and the cheese is melted.  Serve hot or at room temperature.

Want to win a coupon to try Perdue Short Cuts as well?  Just leave a comment below telling me what you would make with them!  Gain an extra entry by following me on Twitter and/or liking the Dish on Facebook, and then just let me know you did!  Five winners will be drawn on Friday evening and announced on Saturday!

 

***Please note that this review is not compensated; I really do like the flavor and texture of the product and would purchase it again with my own money.***

    Chicken salad, and I’d forget about the bread and eat it straight from the spoon 🙂

    That looks delish!

    I’d love to try those on BBQ chicken pizza.

    I would make your chicken cordon bleu panini. It looks scrumptious.

    I love chicken…especially grilled! I would put it in a pasta dish.

    I found use these on salads and to put in sandwiches to make them more filling. This would be a great alternative since I can’t use lunch meat right now. I also follow you on twitter!

    Oh I love that sandwich idea! I would probably make this sandwich or some other form of sandwich with them. Otherwise maybe a salad because I’m too lazy to grill up my own chicken a lot of times. I’m sure thats so shocking. Haha!

    As I stare at the delectable pannini, I have to say that is exactly what I would make!

    So those look amazing. I asked for a bread machine as an anniversary gift and LOVE it. It is kind of amazing to just dump in the ingredients and a little while later have fresh bread or make dough for dinner rolls (so good!!).
    I think I would put the chicken in a salad…or in tacos…or probably just eat it with my fingers (too much?)
