This Chipotle Turkey Panini is made with toasted bread that’s generously slathered with scratch-made chipotle mayo and layered with sliced deli turkey and provolone cheese. It’s perfect for a quick and delicious lunch!
Add all the ingredients for the chipotle mayo to an immersion blender and blend until smooth and thick. Transfer to a jar and set aside.
Heat a panini press over medium-high heat.
Spread 1 ½ tbsp of chipotle mayo onto each slice of bread.
Layer two slices with provolone, turkey, arugula, and tomatoes (in that order). Close the sandwiches with the other slices of bread.
Place one sandwich on the panini press and gently press down. Let it toast for 4-5 minutes until heated through. Cut in half diagonally and repeat with the other sandwich.
Notes
Oil: You can use another light/neutral tasting oil like safflower or sunflower oil.
Chipotle Mayo: The recipe makes about 12 oz (~350 ml) of chipotle mayo. Store the leftovers in an airtight jar and keep in the fridge for 1-2 weeks.
