Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, fig jam, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated with the jam.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Panini

    Lay out two slices of sourdough bread. On each slice, spread a generous amount of the chicken and fig jam mixture. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, then place the remaining slices of bread on top.

  3. 3

    Grill the Panini

    Heat a pan or panini press over medium heat. Brush the outside of each sandwich with olive oil. Place the sandwiches onto the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the panini from the grill, slice in half, and serve warm.
