Description
A delicious grilled panini filled with fresh vegetables and creamy burrata cheese.
Ingredients
- 2 ciabatta rolls
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 8 ounces burrata cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon pesto (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat a grill pan or panini press over medium heat.
- In a bowl, toss the sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and have grill marks. Remove from heat.
- Slice the ciabatta rolls in half and spread pesto on the inside of each half if using.
- Layer the grilled vegetables on the bottom half of each roll, followed by a generous portion of burrata cheese. Top with baby spinach and place the other half of the roll on top.
- Place the panini in the grill pan or panini press. Grill for about 3-5 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is slightly melted.
- Remove from the heat, slice in half, and serve warm.
Notes
- For a smoky flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika to the vegetable mix.
- Try substituting the burrata with fresh mozzarella or goat cheese for a different taste.
