Kitchen Tips

• To save time, you could have great options for the chicken: leftover chicken, rotisserie chicken breast, or off-the-bone chicken breast from where you get your deli meat. To add a little extra kick, arugula or baby power greens would be a nice alternative to baby spinach.
• If you have one, a panini press is the best tool for preparing this recipe. However, a grill pan (or even a large skillet) can also be used. For best results, use a clean heavy cast iron skillet or a spatula to press down on the roll while toasting.
