Chicken Salad Panini
Why I Love This Recipe
My family likes sandwiches in the summer and we also like chicken salad...so this just goes well together.
NOTE: You may cook your own chicken breast..you'll need 2
If you can't find Jarlsberg cheese(sometimes I can't) I use what ever kind I have on hand.
Ingredients You'll Need
1 can Pillsbury refrigerated Pizza

1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 (6oz) pkg. refrigerated cooked
Italian-style chicken breast,
