gave 4 stars b/c I changed the recipe, but it was wonderful. I added baby greens instead of peppers and used a sweet vidalia that I caramelized. will make again - hubby loved it!

I would add some additional veggies to this recipie.

This was a GREAT recipe, but i changed the bread to whole wheat pre-sliced sour dough bread and i changed the chicken to thinly sliced turkey for faster food. It's also easier since I'm a kid if you use green and red peppers instead of onion.

We love this recipe. It tastes like something you'd get at a resteraunt. Very easy and so delicious!

This is my favorite kind of panini! I have a few tips though to make these sandwiches easier and healthier. For the bread, you can use any sturdy bread. Spray one side of each slice of bread with no-stick spray before putting it on the grill. For the pesto, Classico makes a very strong jarred pesto and you only need 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of it on a sandwich, which lightens it up significantly. Sliced turkey lunch meat is easier to handle and you don't have to cook something special before hand, and thinly sliced bell peppers stay in the sandwich better. I don't usually put cheese on mine, but I put a thin slice of mozzarella on my boyfriend's turkey pesto paninis. Mozzarella is lower in fat and calories than Monterey jack. I hope this helps someone, these are really great sandwiches!

This was the best sandwich I've ever eaten; a must-try! I (like others) made a few tweaks to make it easier to eat. I used a thin breast instead of chopped chicken, and I replaced the red onion with sauteed mushrooms. I also mixed the pesto with some cream cheese to give it a bit of density. Thanks for sharing this!

My husband and I loved these, and at first he turned his nose up at the pesto. Just goes to show you shouldn't knock it before you try it!

The boys Loved this

I guess I expected to taste like the one I ate at Jason's Deli ..Thought that it was just okay

I changed this up, maybe too much.. I used Ciabatta bread, (couldnt find foccacia), and put grilled chicken,fresh mozzarella and a slice of ham along with the pesto.. The whole family loved it!

I absolutely loved these! I used red instead of green pepper, personal preference. The family didn't care for the pesto though. I loved it!

Try it this way also: pesto, artichoke hearts chopped, Swiss cheese, chicken breast cut in small pieces, fresh Parmesan. Awesome. I eat this often. Can also throw in some bruschetta.

Excellent tasting and very quick and easy. We made these using leftover turkey and cooked them on the Foreman grill.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. Love it!

I've been making a version of this for a while now and it is fantastic. BTW panini is plural for the word panino - which is a pressed sandwich. So there is no need for an s at the end of it.

These were excellent! I ended up sautéing peppers & onions, as I generally don't like onions -so this turned out supper yammy. I had few paninis left over and my friends that tried them absolutely loved it! Would highly recommend!

So Good! These are great for a quick lunch. We added artichoke hearts.
