GREEK MARINATED CHICKEN PANINI WITH PESTO
Excellent tasting panini. I recommend using a panini press but if you don't have one then you can use two cast iron skillets. This is a recipe i came up with on a whim and it tasted great.

Steps:
- Add marinade ingredients to large ziplock bag (oil,oregano, sugar, lemon pepper seasoning, salt, pepper, garlic, and both the zest and juice from 1 lemon).
- With a fork punch several holes in chicken breast so marinade can penetrate. Add chicken to bag and marinade for 4 hours.
- Remove chicken from marinade and grill on charcoal/gas grill with a hunk of smoking wood until juices run clear. Remove and let chicken cool slightly to handle.
- Put your palm flat on each chicken breast and slice each chicken breast in 1/2 so that each piece is 1/2 as thick as original chicken breast. Spread about 2 teaspoons of pesto over 4 slices of the bread. Add cheese and then 1/2 of each breast of chicken that you cut above. Add 3 artichoke per sandwich, broken up. Put other 4 slices of bread on top.
- Grill in panini press until bread is nicely toasted and cheese is melted (about 4 minutes).

Steps:
- On bottom of both bread pieces brush on olive oil.
- Spread one tablespoon of pesto (or more if you like) on each piece of bread on the top side. So the bottom will have olive oil and the top will have pesto.
- On the the pesto side on ONE HALF of bread place spinach leaves. Repeat with other bread.
- On top of spinach place 1/4 of mozzarella. Repeat with other bread.
- Layer on chicken, olives, tomatoes and 1/4 of mozzarella. Repeat on other bread to make two complete sandwiches. Fold in half with the olive oil side on the outside.
- Grill on panini press or Foreman Grill.
- If you don't have these (as I don't) heat grill pan to medium heat. Wash two bricks and cover with foil. Place sandwiches side by side on grill pan. Place foil covered bricks on top. Cook on medium for 4-6 minutes. Turn over and replace bricks. Cook an additional 4-6 minutes until cheese is melted and bread is toasted brown.

MARINATED CHICKEN PANINI
Based on a recipe I found in "Classic Home Cooking". I usually skip the honey. Use whatever herbs you like. I usually use parsley, cilantro, and thyme.
