Ingredients

  • 4 ciabatta rolls
  • 4 Tablespoons. store bought basil pesto
  • 4 slices provolone cheese
  • ¾ pound deli turkey breast sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Spread about a tablespoon pesto on the inside of one-half of your roll. Add deli turkey, then a slice of cheese. 
  • Top with the other roll half and cook in grill pan, using a weight or another pan to add some weight to smush the bread slices (that's the technical term, right?)
  • Cook sandwiches until cheese begins to melt and outside begins to become a light golden brown crusty. Cut into half and serve. 

Notes

These can be preassembled and refrigerated ahead of time. 
A panini maker isn't needed; you can make these in a skillet or cast iron pan. Place another pan and a heavy canned item on top to compress the sandwich.
